I've driven newer foxes, and I like the older 87-88 SD cars a LOT better than MAF. There are some (few) upgrades worth mentioning.
MAF for those people who are going wild with the combo or adding boost.
91 Featured enlarged front fenderwells and 16" Pony wheels. (Not that the 1987-1989 cars aren't commonly equipped with the 16's now.
Personally, I dislike airbags. Some studies show they help, others that they do not. Personally, I doubt they do anything. All I see is extra expense associated with purchasing a car.
If you have to have airbags, you should get a 1989 with drivers side, or 90+ the 5.0's are all standard drivers side anyway. There were changes to the gauge cluster when the airbags were introduced, along with the wiring changes.
