Review written on 5/1958.
The press around the Philadelphia Motors Boone may look more appealing than the everyone else. But is it really a better Pickup Truck? As long as it's not as bad as the J7539, Philadelphia Motors should be happy with their results. We luckily have a test model to figure out where this vehicle stands in the market. And if it lives up to what the advertisements are saying about it.

Is the Philadelphia Motors Boone fast? Uh, No. But is that important? Maybe. For a Pickup Truck the Boone is well below average. There are many other vehicles in this class that can move better and faster on the track. And because of that we don't consider it to be very good. The 99 hp @ 2124RPMs 4362 cc I4 engine is underpowered for this vehicle. Which ultimately hurts its performance. The Boone is able to reach a top speed of 75 mph and it does 22.044s 0 to 60 mph on the strip. While the 197 lb-ft of torque you get is not insane it is more than enough to tow 4711 lbs which was a decent amount for this class. And that leaves us with one conclusion. Philadelphia Motors Should have probably used a bigger, better engine for this vehicle. But as it is, it will do. There is not much to say about the Philadelphia Motors Boone when it comes to handling. As a Pickup Truck it's below average. As an everyday driver it'll do its job. In summation the Boone is mundane.

When we got to interior testing on the Philadelphia Motors Boone we found it to be below average. While you wouldn't want to use this vehicle on a road trip, it is comfortable enough for short rides and tiny commutes.

The Philadelphia Motors Boone gives you a sense of home away from home. With 83 cu-ft of cargo and passenger space the Boone feels like a second living room. Which was what Philadelphia Motors was probably thinking when they made this vehicle. "Lets make a vehicle that people could live in." Well Philadelphia Motors thank you, because after my wife threw me out, this is my new home. And let me tell you, it rocks!

Serious effort goes into every Philadelphia Motors Boone produced. The build quality of these vehicles is amazing! We could not find a single flaw in its construction while we were testing it. Everything fits properly, nothing is misaligned or misplaced. All of us here at GCM commend Philadelphia Motors in their efforts when it comes to the production of this vehicle.

Dog is said to be man's best friend. But that saying isn't true anymore. I propose the Philadelphia Motors Boone is truly man's best friend. Not once in our long term testing did it need repair. This vehicle was built to last a life time. It is truly a wonder of the world. Centuries from now people will still probably be driving this thing, that's how rock solid it is.

Out on civilian streets you'll never be thought of as a eco-maniac while driving your Philadelphia Motors Boone. With its sub-par 12.6 mpg the Boone will hit your wallet hard. Don't worry, the gas station clerk is a nice guy!

The extra effort from Philadelphia Motors to make the Boone feel safer pays off. The reinforced frame makes the vehicle much more impact resistant. Don't go driving into walls your self, just take our word for it.

When it comes down to it, the Philadelphia Motors Boone is one of the best Pickup Truck on the market. For almost everyone on the looking for a Pickup Truck, you won't find a much better vehicle than the Boone. It testing team was astonished by the results. We give it our total and complete recommendation.
