looks good. Hopefully you don't run into the same driver that messed your old truck up. I bet the guy thought he was in the right for trying to pass you like that. I had a guy cut me off on while I was trying to make a right turn into a gas station and when I called him on it he said he didn't do anything wrong.

I love the 8 foot bed, I wish had one some times, but the majority of the time I am glad I don't because I would need to park it.

I have no problem parking mine anywhere. Just need to back in.

Nice truck young Dan. Funny to see this turn into a shortbed bashing thread............I guess to some they have their place, that place isn't in my driveway either, tried it once, never again. The sheetmetal is a little thinner than the older trucks, but the rest is light years ahead!


Enjoy your new truck!

See I disagree I don't have any issues with any of my vehicles let alone my 2005 F350. You can all have your new trucks which have their own unique problems as well. If I ever decide to go newer at least when I do I will be stepping into a 2016 ten years from now and I will read enough about them thanks to you all that I will know what needs fixing!

Not to mention it's certainly a great feeling to own your truck and not have to pay payments! I can't justify spending over $55k for a new truck.

I will always buy used anyhow because I love doing my own work and don't care for warranty work because I don't trust any shop to do the work unless I can watch them do it step by step!

I have driven the newer ones anyhow, they feel great and have all the bells and whistles. Biggest difference aside the looks and technology built into them is towing power. Especially when we are talking the 2016 F350 and up that can tow a damn building down!!!

Hi camaro609,

Since you're a new member, you won't be able to respond to PMs until you've been here for 10 days and have had 10 posts. Feel free to send an email to custserv@ford.com with your order number and dealer name/location; I'll check out the status of your order. Since this email address isn't monitored, be sure to put my name ("Crystal") in the subject line and post here once you've sent it. That's how I'll know to go and look for your message.

Crystal

I meant no disrespect towards anyone, I work in a urban setting and am in and out of very tight parking lots all day and use the truck for work (and play). It's not that I couldn't park it, I just don't want too is all.


Have a great day-

Hi camaro609,

Congrats on ordering. Reach out to me via PM with your order number and dealership name/location; I'll provide you with weekly updates on your truck's status. I'm confident that the wait will be worth it.
