New F350!

Pretty excited for sure, and I figured I'd share with folks who "get it" when it comes to these trucks. I've been lusting after the new 6.7 engine since it's '11 intro and yesterday I drove my very own '13 F350 DRW Lariat Ultimate home. Good stuff.

So tomorrow I'll be picking up our new 5th wheel -- cannot wait to pull with this thing!

Requisite pic (early AM in the parking garage)

Nice pic and color...so it fits in the parking garage..take it easy on the 5er as your powertrain is not broke in yet. Just take it slow.

Glad to see your parking garage doesn't have micro spaces! Most garages in the Baltimore area don't even fit a SRW Superduty let alone a fat girl. What did you get for a fifth wheel? No matter the size of the trailer, you are going to love every minute of towing it with that truck.

We definitely have a few of those econobox spaces around here ... But hey, it's Texas, there would be an armed revolt if all spaces were micro-sized

We bought a Heartland Gateway 3650 BH. Can't wait to hitch up!

Awesome setup (truck and trailer). Those Gateways are nice units. We have a fairly new 2013 F350 as well and pull a Heartland Big Country with it.

Check out the Heartland Owners Club forums. Great group of folks over there that'll help with about anything you need to know about the fiver.

Very cool! I think we bought the same hitch, too? (diff thread)
I bought the B&W Companion for the Ford OEM prep, 20k...
