Good morning Dave, Jim, Steve, Gerry, Troy, Mike, and everyone else.

Steve, Long time no see. I was just wondering if you still came around here.

 

Morning all. Got a dusting of snow. yesterday/last night.

Jay- h5oh I knew was mondays... felt like a monday yesterday. LOL

 

No snow here, suppose to be sunny and 15 today.

Good morning Eric!

 

Good morning Dustin!

 

Good morning Dave. It is quiet in here. I don't see you around much to help...

Good morning Jim.

Good morning Steve. Happy New Year!

Good morning Gerry.

Good morning Troy.

Good morning Mike. You need another cup of coffee.

Good morning Eric. We don't see Steve much anymore.

 

Good morning and try to keep your beverage from freezing on this frigid thirsty Thursday MN. Had -14F at my house, so I rode the skidoo into work. Probably hit some -18 or colder patches. I stayed pretty comfortable on the 21mile trip, except my right thumb was close to frost bite. I should have put the handle bar muffs on, that would have helped a lot.

 

Good morning Dustin.

We barely got a dusting of snow the last two days.

Good morning Jim. Awesome way to start the day. I miss doing that.

 

I just talked to a guy who is trying to move a 95 F350 2wd 7.3L Powerstroke with 262,000 miles on it. I asked his price. He said he had it listed at $6900 and had quoted it for $5900 to someone but is looking to find a true value that someone might buy it for. It is a lot more than I'd want to spend on it. It has fender rust, a nice super crew cab, and a little of the ubiquitous bed fender rust, but not terrible. Also, it has a welded shop built tail gate and a crude looking spray in liner. He says that the interior has always had seat covers and that the seats are in good shape.

Anyone have any ideas as to what this would be worth? The 2wd is probably a deal breaker. He realizes that he is going to have to come down in price. But, he would like to get a reasonable value for it.

Also, it is a 5 speed manual.

 

I have not really researched that scenario Eric but I would be surprised if he can even get $3000 for that setup. It's old, getting rusty, 2wd,...

 

That's bold! When I lived in GA, I rode my motorcycle to work 12 months of the year. But, if it got down under freezing, there didn't seem to be a way to keep my fingers warm and flexible enough. I was fine everywhere but my hands. I can't imagine the temps you're talking about.

 

Yeah, I was thinking quite a bit less than that was gonna be what I got serious at.

 

Those temps aren't as bad on a sled as they are on a bike. Part of the reason is you are protected better from the wind on a sled but you can also dress warmer than you can for biking. And you tend to move around more on the sled which helps keep you warmer. I have ridden in as cold as -40 and while it wasn't easy staying warm it was possible. It was more the face shield icing up that was the issue.

 

Good Morning everyone!! Happy Thirst Thursday! Tomorrow is Friday!!

 

Good luck finding that motivation Mike!!

 

That sounds pretty close to what my truck was. Mine was a '96 F250 CC 4WD though. The difference in value between a F250 and a F350 of that age is minimal.

I got $3K for mine with 260K miles on it.

Given that it's 2WD, I don't think I'd go over $2500 for it. I had mine listed for $3750 and nobody even looked at it. I had 4 or 5 phone calls over the course of a 2 months.
