What Truck did you own before your Super Duty?

Just curious as to what truck you owned before your Super Duty?

I've owned quite a few GM trucks before I got my Ford. The last being a 01' 2500 HD with the 6.0. It was a decent truck that I ordered new and worked hard for 190k. The 6.0 was ok when not loaded but it always left me wanting more.

2002 F150 XLT.

Had to upgrade. I was beating the hell out of the little halfie trying to work it as a farm truck. Hauling heavy loads etc. It did it but not very quickly.

The Dana 60 was a big factor in me jumping ship and getting a Ford. Its just a beefier truck all around.

1994 2x4 Ranger - 2 years. (First vehicle.)
1986 2X4 F-150 long bed - 13 years.

That brings me up to my current truck.....see sig - 1 year.

All three trucks have been AMAZING trucks that I can have NO complaint about. Tough, long lasting, faithful, sturdy vehicles.

Stepping backward from my current rig:
95 F250HD XLT 4x4- ex cab long bed, 460, auto trans... best truck I've ever owned. Wish I still had it
92 F250 Custom 4x4- reg cab, 351, 5 speed... also a damn good truck
87 Chevy K20- reg cab, 350 EFI, 4 speed. Bought in lieu of fixing my other truck (again) after someone was nice enough to let me T-bone them. Rolled it 2 months later... rebuilt it and drove it for another 4-5 months before I parked it and bought my first Ford
83 Chevy K20 (first truck)- reg cab, 350, 4 speed. Started life w/a 396... loved that motor until I blew it up. Replaced w/ a 350... big mistake. Owned it several years, bought it as a beat up farm truck and spent 2 years slowly fixing it up... got it painted up all nice and wrecked it 6 months later (not my fault).
