carborated vs. fuel injected

[archimedes8989]

which is better for reliabilty and every day use. I'm looking into a couple of trucks, a 1990 F series and an 85 F series. I like the 85 more, but its carborated, and I've heard that for a Daily driver, fuel injection is way better. Is this right?

Injection is usually more reliable and better for fuel mileage but if the `85 is a good deal it might be worth it.

i would say injection is eaiser to start carborated is a bitch well thats just my opinion i only had that vs one of our 4 wheelers is injection and the other not the one that is injection fires right up but maybe its different with cars.
