New '17

Just picked up a '17 f250 reg cab XLT with the 6.2. Traded my '11 f250 XLT Crew Cab with 62K on the clock. The '17 is the type truck that i wanted when i was 18 and couldnt afford it. Now im not 18 and can afford it.


Still have an all ford fleet.
2017 F250 XLT RC- My ride
2015 F150 XLT SC- wifes ride
2012 Focus SEL hatch back- My commuter


All were purchased at Walls Ford in Salisbury, MA. Great group to work with and have treated my Family very well. Can't say enough good stuff about them.

i think they are cool, if you can get away with only hauling 3 people around.

Curious how the room in the cab compares to the previous Super Duty regular cab? I know the wheelbase is longer and I'm wondering if the added length was added to the cab portion. I'm thinking about getting the same setup. Are you going to add running boards? Looks like quite a step up. Black is beautiful!

Finally a truck with the Goodyear Wranglers from the factory. I was starting to think they didn't exist. Nice truck!

I just ordered a F350 Regular cab 6.7 yesterday. My first ford I had a 2015 GMC Denali duramax that I traded in.

This truck is awesome. I think there is more room in the cab than the previous version ( same with the F150). I have no plan for running boards even with the giant leap you must take to get in the cab ( it might keep the wife out of the truck).

I thought about waiting for a 6.7 but i was spoiled by my easy maintaince 6.2 in my last truck (only did oil changes). I dont need the power of the 6.7. This truck was just sitting on the lot so luckily i didnt have to go though the anxiety of waiting for a truck to be built and delivered

does anybody know if you get a boost guage in a regular cab with a 6.7 I heard they dont have the gauge in the 4.2 screen only in the 8 inch productivity guage. You can only order the xlt value package not the premium package in the regular cab

Beautiful truck! There just isn't anything better looking than a regular cab, long bed pickem' up truck. Nicely done!


I'm on the fence between going this route or supercab, long bed. My heart's desire is for the simplicity and clean look of the regular cab...the practical side of me keeps telling me a supercab will be nicer to work with...I don't haul passengers other than the wife occassionaly and one or two of the guys going to hunting camp.

Both trucks had 3.73 gears and the 6.2. This one seems way more "peppy" than the previous. Could be the loss of the rear doors but this one gets up and goes.

I got the wife's truck to haul kids around as well as a little focus. I had no need for more than the regular cab
