I got mine at a farmers supply store. Paid $1.50 a pound for them. 18lbs worth.

That is a VERY nice looking truck. It may be a broken record now, but that color combo looks really good.

Ya they look real nice in both colors, but a have a question and observation about these two trucks.

The observation is, are they both short beds? I know one is but they actually look like big sisters from the Explorer Sport trac (with big ****)
When you buy a washer and dryer do you have to make two trips?

The question is, can you pull a 5th wheel like that?, it looks like the camper may hit the cab.

Other than that, they have nice big sleeper cabs.

I have never owned a short bed before, but I have seen people pulling everything with short bed trucks with no trouble.

I am getting a gooseneck hitch installed tomorrow, and I am anxious to see how the gas motor will pull my cattle trailer.

If it works, good for you, why didn't you order the gooseneck/5th wheel prep from the factory?

Brake it in correctly and that gasser will pull just about anything, it's not a 7.3 diesel but it will do a good job.

Very Nice Boomsling. I would love to put some pics up here, but for the life of me, and numerous suggestions on this very forum, I haven't figured it out...just have to rely on my signature picture. Looks like we chose the same color combo.

First off, I didn't "order" my truck. My dealer "found" it for me, but it was equiped almost exactly like I would have ordered it.

Second, my local installer does the same hitch for less.

Yup, looks like we have about the same thing. I was looking at a green and tan one at the same time. I think the dark blue and grey looks sweet.
Took me a while to figure out how to post pics too. I can't figure out how to make a signature line though. Do I have to have a certain number of posts or something?
