Good review on my 250 so far

Yesterday i picked up my 08 250.(Had to get the fifth wheel put in) Along with the 30' camper and I was IMPRESSED. I love this truck. I almost foregot I traded in my stang. Comfort, ride, the pull, power, are all very good. I love the whine of the turbos too. I 'll drive with the windows down just to listen to them. I'm glad I got the diesel. You guys and gals will probably see me on here alot in the future.




From a Pony to a Workhorse. Hooaaaa!

Congratulations on the new truck and a welcome to both of you! BTW if you fill the "location" field of your user profiles folks will know what part of the country you're in. That's always helpful whenever you have a question and besides it's just the sociable thing to do.

Red face

its been about 5-6 days now with 602 miles on her and still lovin it. July 6,7,8 we're going camping so I'll be pullin the fifth wheel. We'll see how it goes then.
My wife has been gone for 2 weeks on military duty and she will be coming home to not only a new truck for me BUT a new 30' camper. I'll either be out the door or in good standings.

I vote for both. I like my '05 GT convertible parked right next to my '08 Superduty.

Just took my 08 on a 3000 mi round trip from WA to CA with 2 grandkids. It was awesome. I loved the way the 6.4 went up all those grades never even shifting out of OD. Avg mpg at 75 mph was 16 (no trlr). Can't wait to try it with a trailer.
