Default My new other vehicle

I finally traded off my Dodge 1500 for something a little nicer. It's a Ford F-250 with the Powerstroke diesel. It has just over 71000 miles on it which is barely broke in for a diesel and the interior is immaculate. The exterior is also in excellent shape. I'm still surprised I bought a Ford but this is a really nice truck, even nicer than my Dodge.

Factory trailer brake controller in the dash next to factory auxiliary light switches. The switches aren't hooked to anything right now but that will be a temporary situation.

my work rig is a 08 F250 SD with the diesel. i have never been a ford person,,, or an american vehicle person for that matter but i do like that truck. mine is in the shop following a rear end collision the truck suffered a few weeks back. i am driving a GMC canyon 5cyl crew cab. its a nice enough little rig, but i do miss my f250


enjoy that thing, they are great trucks

A guy really has to be compensating for something to feel it necessary to drive a truck like that International. They ride like battle tanks and take a football field to park.
