Congrats on your new ride.

My 2011 F250 and 2004 dually are close to the same color.
Love it.

I just traded in my F150 with 6.5 bed for a F350 long bed. I was just telling a few friends that parking is a pain going forward, but backing in is so easy. I find myself backing in about every time I park now. I am glad that it is not just me.

It's always better and safer to back first. I find plenty of easy parking near the back of parking lots and don't have to worry about knuckleheads opening doors or running karts into my truck.

I was only taught two ways to park.... Pull through or back in..... Of course I have always had a pick-up.

Thanks Dad.

CaptFx4......was looking at a new/ used 2014 F-350 KR 4x4 L.W. traded in at our local Ford Dealer. It has 3.73 E.LOCKER, was wonder if you feel the truck you purchased performs well pulling your trailer, I was worried if I put some 35" tires on with a level kit if the truck will bog out bad pulling my 10k trailer? Hard to find a truck with 4.30 gears around here to test to compare to!! I'm coming from a 1992 F-350 4x4 C.C 460 3.55 LS.
Thanks

I am extremely happy with my truck and can't even tell my trailer is behind me.

I wish I could answer your question about the 10K trailer, but my thought with the gas 6.2L was to get the 4.30 gears. I would not have bought it with 3.73's. I think if I ran a 35" tire I wouldn't see much drop in performance. But not having the 3.73's it's hard to say how it will tow.

You may get better answers if you make a new posting. Sorry I wasn't much help.
