Ford F100 truck rental: a slice of pickup history
Drive a F100
You can book a classic Ford F100 truck rental on Turo directly from a local vehicle owner. It's a Ford rental with genuine vintage character, plus a bench seat to prove it.
Booking works like any trip on Turo: choose the exact truck you want, then pick a pickup and drop-off option from the listing. Ford retired the F100 nameplate after 36 years, with 1983 as its final model year. That makes every F100 you'll find a true classic.

Honest, torque-rich six-cylinder power
The F100's 4.9L (300) inline-six earned its reputation for low-end torque and durability. Ford also offered a 3.8L V6 (the source of the specs above) and a 5.0L (302) V8. Check the listing to see what's under the hood.
Lighter, slipperier styling
The seventh-generation F100, built for the 1980–1983 model years, wears a lighter, more aerodynamic body than the trucks that came before it. Ford trimmed weight and smoothed the shape. A Standard Cab short-bed truck comes in at 3,240 lbs and rides on a 116.8-inch wheelbase.
For you, that means an early-'80s silhouette that reads instantly as a classic Ford pickup, at an event or in a photo. It's a design that still looks purposeful decades later (and it's a conversation starter at every stop). Compare the listing photos to see the body style and bed length of the truck you're booking.
Bench-seat simplicity
Inside, the F100 keeps things refreshingly simple. A single bench seat holds three people, vinyl upholstery suits the era, and rear-wheel drive sends power to the back tires. There's no second row, so plan your passenger count around that front bench.
Transmission choices vary from truck to truck. You might find a three-speed manual, a four-speed manual with overdrive, or a C6 three-speed automatic. If you'd rather skip the clutch, confirm the gearbox on the listing before you book (it's the one detail you'll want settled before pickup day).
Stand out with a F100
A Ford F100 brings instant vintage character to photo shoots, music videos, events, and slow weekend cruises. Picture it as the backdrop for an album cover, the centerpiece of a celebration, or your ride for a sunny Saturday drive. To compare it with newer pickups, browse more truck rentals on Turo.
Top F100 features
A 36-year nameplate
Three things set the F100 apart: its heritage, its final-year collectibility, and the Ranger Lariat trim.
The F100 carried its name for 36 years and seven generations before Ford retired it. That long run means you can find F100s from very different eras, each with its own look and personality. Listings on Turo have included a 1955 F100 in Long Beach, California.
The model year you choose shapes the feel of your trip, so think about the look you want before you book. A 1950s truck sets a different scene than a seventh-generation truck from the early '80s. Compare listing photos and model years side by side, so the F100 that shows up matches your shoot, event, or weekend plans.
Final-year collectibility
The F100's final model year was 1983. By then, sales of the Ford F-150 had grown significantly greater, and Ford let the F-150 carry its pickup line forward. That timing gives 1983 trucks a special place in the F100 story.
When you book a final-year truck, you're driving the last chapter of a 36-year nameplate. You also get the seventh-generation design, with the lighter, more aerodynamic body Ford introduced for 1980. At a photo shoot or event, that history adds a story worth telling — especially when someone asks what year it is.
Ranger Lariat trim
Ford offered the Ranger Lariat trim on the seventh-generation F100, and the name alone carries plenty of classic-truck character. If you spot it on a listing, you've found one of the seventh-generation trims Ford sold during the F100's final years.
Trim details vary from truck to truck, especially on a pickup that's several decades old. Original parts, past restorations, and owner updates can all shape what you'll find inside. Review the listing description and photos to confirm the trim, interior, and transmission, then message the local vehicle owner with any questions.

Top tips and things to know before renting a F100
Get to know your F100
A little prep goes a long way with a classic truck. Here's what to know about alternatives, driving, and pricing before you book.
The F100 is a classic, rear-wheel-drive pickup with a three-person bench, so it's best for trips where style and story come first. If you need more seats or newer features, other Ford options on Turo can fill the gap. The Ford Super Duty F-250 brings modern truck capability, the Ford Bronco adds SUV space for a group, and the Ford Focus suits city errands.
F100 driving tips
Drive the F100 like the classic it is: smoothly, and with plenty of space around you.
Give yourself extra following distance, since older steering and brakes can feel slower than a modern truck's.
Take turns and wet roads gently, since rear-wheel drive sends all the power to the back tires.
Check the listing for the transmission type, because some F100s use a manual gearbox.
Plan seating for three, because the bench seat is the only row.
How much does it cost to rent a F100?
Local vehicle owners set their own F100 prices, so the cost varies by model year, condition, location, and trip dates. Longer trips often come with discounts. If you need the truck for weeks or months, look into a long-term car rental.

* Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.
