One reason I did not get one in the first place is Ford's stupidity. What kind of a company makes a truck with 7, yes 7, lugs nuts. The engineering manager in charge of that should have been demoted back to a D&R for carpet.
There is absolutly no way to get custom wheels and of course Ford only offers these real pretty steel chrome ones.

I sold an 04 S-D with a 6.0 due to motor and trans issues, ( 4 trips to dealer in less just over a year and 11K ) along with the cost of diesel being +1.00 more than regular gas. When you only get 15mpg with a diesel and your buddy gets 14mpg with his gasser sbut your paying a buck more for fuel it starts to eat you up. Yes the S-D was more than I really needed but it was to be a very long term investment, and fuel was cheaper than gas when I purchased.


My truck is a commuter and I just want to be able to load what ever I want and not worry.
