I just bought a 1988 Ford F150 today and before purchasing it I looked for all the normal type things. Especially oil leaks. I did not see any. Well after driving the truck and hr and half home I parked it and went out about an hr later and saw a small puddle of oil. Any ideas what this could be? Maybe the truck hasnt been driven for that long of distance. Thank you for your advice

Its leaking all right-try to identify where its coming from-you don't want to prolong it-sooner or later the leak is gonna get bigger and you'll probably lose all the oil and lock the engine.
