How does this look?
Howdy All! My friend is thinking about buying this: 2000 Ford F-250 Supercrew Lariat 4x4 7.3L TurboDiesel . What do you all think? What should he be looking for when he sees it?

I would look for any rust on the frame or doorsill edges, when you're driving it let go of the steering wheel and brake and make sure it runs straight. There is a lot you can check for on these trucks. Especially being as old as they are and not knowing how the owner before treated it.

Looks like a good prospect- being free of mods as it appears. Find out what those switches under the dash are for. See if you can get the VIN and then get an OASIS report from the local dealership.

Going to the dark side you are. LOL Looks like a real nice rig Ian. Nice low mileage truck. Manual shift transfer case. Nice color too!
