King Ranch..... Well I just made the same decision as you. Traded in my 02 7.3l and get my EB on Friday next week. I cannot wait! Think I have really made a great choice. Loved the old 7.3l, but ready for a newer truck after ten years.

Give us an update.... Wanna hear more good stuff. Come on man brag!

3500 miles on it now, almost all of it hauling my snowmobile up north.
Love the truck more every time I drive it.

There are a couple of panels under the truck that need to be removed to gain access to the filter and the drain plug.

Happy motoring!
My Ram has the same panels needing to be removed, it's no big deal. It's part of the aero group for better MPG.

It has been a tough winter for snowmobiling! Where do you ride up north?? I have been going up to Caribou, Maine and all over Aroostook county for years. I just finally sold my sleds this past summer due to having to get both hip replaced for the second time.. My body just cant take that kind of abuse anymore. Not that the trails are bad that far north but it only takes one good section of moguls at a high rate of speed to send me back to the E.R.!! I sure will miss it.....
