Buying the 1981 Ford FT8000

We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 1981 Ford FT8000 for sale by us right now. Before you buy the 1981 Ford FT8000, see the figures and the checks worth doing.

Before you sign for the FT8000

Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.

Engine and fuel

No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.

Best uses

It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.

Size and space

It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with.

Try before you buy

A week with the FT8000 answers more than any brochure. Rent the FT8000 for a week and see how it fits your life. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car.

Choosing the right one

Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.

The cost of driving it

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.

Rent it for a week before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 1981 Ford FT8000 from us first.

Not right now. CarmaCars rents cars; it sells one only now and then. Tell us what you want and we look for one, or rent one for a week first.

Can I rent a 1981 Ford FT8000 before I buy one?

Yes. Request it for a week (or longer, up to 365 days) and drive it as your own; nothing is charged until we confirm and you approve.

Does the 1981 Ford FT8000 have recalls?

NHTSA lists no recall campaign for this model year.

Where do the figures come from?

Fuel use and fuel cost from the US EPA (fueleconomy.gov), dimensions and weight from NHTSA vPIC Canadian specifications, recalls and complaints from NHTSA. We leave out any figure no free source publishes.
