Am I lucky or what?
When shopping for my F350 SD 6.4, I found exactly what I was looking for sitting on the dealers lot. I fell in love with it.
We worked out the deal, and I was to take delivery on it the next day. When I arrived, the dealer said "I have to give you a generic key and there is no door code for the lock. You will need to come back in a couple of days and we will get the chipped key made and have a new door code for you".
That seemed really strange, but I took delivery on the truck and went home and played with it a couple of days, and in doing so, I noticed that everything was put together really really nice and very tight. The paint job was excellent, the spray on bed liner was really well done, the interior was first rate with a really good grade of carpet and some really sharp chrome fender triim, and special red white and blue decals (American flag 4X4). In fact, it looked like a truck that I would build for myself.
I went back to the dealer at the appointed time to get the keys made and get the door code from Ford, (this takes quite some time). Anyway, while we were waiting for Ford to send the code for the keys and the door, I was informed by one of the Bowling Green plant managers who was in the dealership that day, that my truck was made for display at the "Dieselrama" show in Louisville four weeks prior and they didn't even have the keys made for it yet.
Anyway, I got an excellent truck, very well built and I can't tell you how happy I am with it...............Normally this doesn't happen to me, I normally run into at least a quality control problem.
I don't drive it very much when I am not towing my TT, but look forward to driving it everytime. IT JUST FEELS SOOOO GOOD!!!!!! GO FORD!!!!

I already love it, and it sure gets a lot of attention. I think I could hold a skating party in that Super Crew cab. I am 63 years old, and feel like a teenager with his first car!!!! My wife also loves it, even though, when I am playing with it, she walks by and just shakes her head, but I don't think most woman understand the "truck thing".
