Picked up on Thursday and took a trip to the river for the weekend.
It is ten times better that I expected!
6.7 with 3.55 and loaded with options.
Coming home is mostly up hill and I was bucking a pretty strong wind.
Set the cruise on 70 mph and it was not problem on grade bucking wind and I got 17 mpg. Driving around on the flat I was getting about 18.
I am very happy! What a great truck. I can't wait to pull my boat and camping trailer.

 

Congratulations! Now, we need to see pics...

I am very happy with my 05 and don't want anything to spoil that

 

Isn't that the truth. It's bad enough that I don't have the money I don't need everybody rubbing it in.
Just kidding, congrats on the new truck hope she serves you well. I am hoping to get another 100,000 out of my 7.3, 340,000 miles here we come.

 

We NEED pics ...then we can throw a new truck party...

 

Pics or it didnt happen!!

 

Quoted from the Ford Truck Manual:
" Within 10 days of taking delivery of a new SuperDuty, you must post pictures on Ford Truck Enthusiasts web site. Failure will result in all 5 tires (spare) going flat at 0200 hrs of the 11th day."

 

Hahaha! That was funny!

 

Pictures soon.
It rained and got a little mud on the truck. I just take a picture of it without giving it a good wash first.

 

Give it some time....

it gets better !!!

I told my salesmen that he did a poor job selling me on it...
he only told me half the nice features on it

 

Ya don't have an Unbrella for it

 

I have finally taken some pictures.
How do I post them?

 

couple of ways...
go advanced and scroll down to manage attachments and upload there for 'embedded' photos....
more permanent photos click on the User CP link on the top left blue bar
and update a gallery or your signature, etc...

good luck !

 

I dont have manage attachments when I scroll down.
And I dont have a clue how to do the CP link.

 

As you learn the forum better, it's come to you

When you are editing or posting a thread look for the "Go Advanced" button
(as shown in the last pic below)
click that and then you can scroll down to show the Manage attachments as shown in the left pic below
The User CP is shown in the right pic below and it is on the top left of your screen in the blue bar...

be patient - it'll work out !
