I did it!
Pulled the trigger on a '15 F350SD Lariat 4D Long Box 4X4 with 4000 miles on it. Who drops 65K on a rig and trades it in?
No pics. It's 750mi away. I will pick it up in two weeks.

someone who over spent and can't afford the payments. Or maybe they had an unexpected emergency that requires money. Or maybe they just didn't like the truck for one reason or another.

It may have been a promo vehicle or it was wrecked and the previous owner traded it in after it was fixed.

That happened to me before. Bought a new car for my wife one year and got divorced the next. So we traded in a less than one year old car just to get me off the loan.

Someone who bought a truck and rv based on mfg weights and found out WHOA...
I am tons overloaded when the wife demanded the next size rv... so traded in on a heavier duty
If you work it right though, it can be done without bleeding money !
Know anyone like that ?? NAH

Finally got her home. Man I love this truck. Once on the freeway, I had to make a quick pass. My right foot was still used to the 'ol 2000 F250 5.4L. Wow! What a kick in the keister! That power is amazing. Smooth, quiet, kick but radio/Sirius.
We built our house 10 years ago. Even then I new I was going to get a long box crew cab. I had the builder bump out the garage enough to fit a Ford SD. I totally forgot about this. Planned on upgrading much sooner. What a happy surprise when I cleaned out the garage and it fit. It was then that I recalled the bump out. They build small garages down south.
I can't wait to hook up the travel trailer and head for the hills!
Turns out the guy bought too much truck. Payments I guess. He traded it for an F150 XLT.
