I dont know it kind of looks like that in person. If its fresh washed is brighter red if dirty at all it looks dull orange-red. But definently not a "cherry" red. I wanted silver

 

You could probably buff the crap out of it to get the shine back. I like it makes it more unique. Now you just need some black rims and bigger tires

 

285/70/17 when these wear out. Kind of thinking about powdercoating rims but lots of money/trouble.

 

Current 08 F350 short bed dually V10, previous 06 250 5.4. First pic - day I closed the deal. Second pic - first real towing. Third pic - previous 06. No mods planned for the 08 yet and not sure what I could really do other than cosmetic. Maybe a 5Star tuner at warranty end. It doesn't have rear window tint so that is on the list. I'm one of those guys who actually like the Ford products original looks.

 

Shortbed dually... may i ask why?

 

MDSuperDuty that's a nice looking truck , but maybe I'm bias.

 

I wanted/needed a crew cab, it was cheaper by almost 10 grand than a long bed dually similarly equipped (because few want it) or even a SRW crew cab (trust me I looked), and only had 25k miles on it. It was on a dealers lot for 7 months (i watched it for that long) and in that 7 months time frame the price dropped about $8k and I got em lower! I would have been fine with a SRW but the DRW was available at a great price. Put it this way I see 08 Reg Cab gas trucks with similar mileage selling for a similar price I picked this up for. Plus I think it looks pretty slick, can haul 4995 in the bed, and has a tow rating of 14k. I run a part time landscape business and maybe used my 8ft bed in the 06 1 or 2 times. My dump trailer did all the work.

 

Thanks man! In the truck world biases are ok! I just have the bigger brother, in the truck world that is

 

MDSuperDuty.. I dig the short bed dually.

 

Thanks! Me too!



Some people hate em, for whatever reason. How is is soooo different from a crew cab short bed SRW? Oh yea right it has 2 extra wheels, tires, and different rims, more payload, more towing...

 

short bed dually is awesome- looks great. I very rarely see them- and usually when i do they are dodge rams.

 

My 2000 V10.
