This is the greatest truck I have owned to date. As many of you know I have scraped by the last few years in survival mode after being laid off and going PR full time. I dismantled and sold away my Lightning and Corvettes. That was harder than stopping smoking I would say:crying: . I have been saving every cent and looking at everyone else roll tight while I spent a year driving old blue my 93 Silverado. I couldn't take it anymore! All work and no play makes Terry a dull boy! I did a lot of research on what would bring me the most ejoyment for my dollar. I thought about another Lightning but something inside told me it wouldn't be the same:( . It would be a constantly disassembled money pit knowing myself.. I decided to move forward into a more useful practical truck that will help develop more business (ie: diesel tuning). I am wanted a F250 diesel 4wd for all uses from towing a customers truck to an event. To hunting and camping out in the woods or down by the river. I want to be able to do all of this with no worries about getting stuck, burning googles of gas where turbo diesel is more efficient. Ford designed this truck for a 300K mile service life. I just got enough truck to serve my needs a super cab not a crew cab Harley or loaded Lariat but still a solid working man's XLT truck. I recomend a Super Duty to anyone who wants the best heavy truck out there:tu: . I feel like I stole the truck at Xplan with the 2,000 rebate for truck month. I am also supposed to get a Milwaukee tool kit. Here it is!

No mods for me I will be happy just to do my work at the shop and make my payments on time. Remember I have been brought up working for "the man" and getting a regular guaranteed paycheck. That is why I sold my Lightning after the layoffs (fear of making pymts). It has taken over a year and a half for me to build up the courage to incur any non-essential debts. It is new territory for me to work for myself and acctually have something nice to pay for and enjoy. I just hope my business is good enough to keep the bills paid:bows .

The man in brown brought it today! The replacemetn bar is what I have been waiting on. I had the new one out and old one wrapped back up in two minutes. Stupid Hotchkis sent a call tag for the funkly bar at the same time they shipped the replacement. Unfortuneately the call tag goes electronically to the route truck and the package takes 5 days from CA. The UPS man said today is the last day for the call tag before it expires. I say that is stupid you just brought the replacement. So I repacked the funkly bar and had it ready before he left the parking lot. Sometime next week may work sir:tu:

Well I survived my first day of ownership. Made a 85 mile round trip through Irving, Dallas, Richardson Garland etc.. I started the day at 9am with a shiney new bed.

Five hours and 900lbs of race fuel later it is broken in scratches, dents and all. I can't even tell it is back there! This same load would kill ol blue and cost MPG.
