If you've been searching for a 1999 Ford F-250SD for sale in Yakima, WA, this Island Blue Clearcoat Metallic Crew Cab is exactly the kind of workhorse that turns heads and gets the job done. Available now at Prestige Motors Yakima, this classic Super Duty is priced at $15,999 and represents one of the most beloved diesel trucks ever built — the legendary Power Stroke era that Ford fans still talk about today.
About This 1999 Ford F-250SD
This truck is a 4-door Crew Cab configuration, giving you full rear-seat space for passengers, gear, or a work crew on the way to the job site. With 278,447 miles on the odometer, this F-250SD has clearly lived a working life — but that's not a red flag, it's a badge of honor when you're talking about a 7.3L Power Stroke diesel. These engines are widely known for exceeding 300,000, 400,000, and even 500,000 miles when properly maintained. The question with any high-mileage Power Stroke isn't whether it can keep going — it's whether it was cared for. Come in and see this one in person at Prestige Motors Yakima to evaluate it yourself.
1999 Ford F-250SD Performance and Engine
The Iconic 7.3L Power Stroke Turbodiesel
The engine under this hood is the 7.3L V8 Direct Injection Turbodiesel — commonly known as the 7.3 Power Stroke — and it is arguably the most respected diesel truck engine ever produced in America. Manufactured in partnership with International Navistar, this mechanical marvel produces around 235 horsepower and 500 lb-ft of torque in its later configuration, giving this F-250SD serious towing and hauling capability.
Paired with a 4-Speed Automatic transmission and full 4-Wheel Drive, this truck is built for everything Yakima County throws at it — from Naches River access roads to Tieton River canyon runs, to snow-covered Cascade foothills terrain. The 4WD system gives you confidence in mud, snow, gravel, and loose terrain, while the Super Duty frame handles heavy trailer loads without breaking a sweat.
Real-World Towing and Hauling
The 1999 F-250SD with the 7.3 Power Stroke was rated to tow up to approximately 12,000–13,000 pounds depending on configuration — more than enough for horse trailers, fifth-wheel campers, flatbeds, and equipment common across Yakima Valley agricultural and construction use.
Ford F-250SD Features and Interior
The Crew Cab body style means four full doors and a rear bench seat — a major advantage over extended cab configurations that offer limited rear access. Whether you're hauling family on a weekend run to the mountains or loading up the crew for an orchard job, the interior layout works in your favor.
This is a 1999 model, so you're working with durable analog controls, a straightforward dashboard, and the kind of truck interior that was built to be cleaned out with a hose. Less screen, more substance. For buyers who prefer mechanical simplicity over tech complexity, that's a genuine selling point — fewer electronics means fewer failure points and easier DIY repairs.
Ford F-250SD Reliability and Ownership
Why the 7.3 Power Stroke Has a Cult Following
The 7.3L Power Stroke is not just reliable — it is the gold standard of diesel truck engines in the used market. Owners and mechanics routinely point to its robust internal design, the absence of a variable geometry turbo (which eliminates a common failure point on later engines), and the mechanical simplicity relative to the 6.0 and 6.4 Power Stroke engines that followed.
Common maintenance items to be aware of on high-mileage examples include injector O-rings, the cam position sensor, oil cooler condition, and glow plug health — all well-documented and generally affordable to address. With a strong base engine, a well-maintained 7.3 at 278,000 miles can still have a substantial working life remaining.
Ford Super Duty trucks from this generation also benefit from parts availability that remains excellent — both dealer parts and aftermarket suppliers have supported these trucks for over 25 years, and a dedicated community of owners and mechanics keeps knowledge and support strong.

The key is reviewing service history, checking for known wear items, and doing a pre-purchase inspection. Mileage context matters far more on a diesel than on a gas engine.
