Moving On ...

For the last 8 years the good people of this forum have been a go-to source for questions and issues for us as we motored along with our 7.3. She has been the best truck I have ever owned. But alas, time is an evil wench. Rust has taken her to the point I need to move on. Regretfully I was not smart with my battle with the elements.


The next truck will push me into other forums (unless you guys know anything about the 6.2 gas motor). I just closed a great deal on a 2012 single cab truck. I did some shopping and ended up back in a Super Duty.


Thank you to all who have and continue to contribute here. God bless all of you.

Sorry to see you go, but you're always welcome to come back to visit... but you already KNOW that, don't you?

I understand how the plight of time takes its toll on life choices, and new chapters open as old ones close. Best of luck with your new ride!

Sorry for your loss, it can creep up unexpectedly and good luck with your new ride. What are you going to do with the old truck?

Traded her in on the new one. Couldn't justify keeping it. Hopefully it will run through the auction and find a good home. I have to get all my crap out of her tonight and drive her to the dealer tomorrow to do the deal. Sad day. This truck has a lot of memories. My youngest daughter drove this truck to her prom.
