Ordered my new truck!

Well, I finally did it. I ordered my new F-350 crew cab King Ranch. I'm actually pretty excited...of all the vehicles I've purchased this is the first one I've ordered from the factory. Just to be vain, the particulars:

F-350 crew cab SRW King Ranch, chesnut brown/beige
6.0L Powerstroke diesel w/ 5-sp auto
Moon roof
Power adjustable pedals
Power sliding rear window
3.73 limited-slip rear end
Idle control kit
Roof clearance lights
FX4 off-road package
Dual alternators
15K hitch
Electric shift transfer case

MSRP was ~$50,600. X-Plan was $44,300. My price (out the door) will be $44,600 (add taxes, subtract rebates and bribes, etc...)

Ended up going through American Ford in Bloomington, MN. John Zroker, my salesperson, was very easy to deal with. I'm sure a lot of it was the X-plan being a basic, no-haggle kind of thing, but he's still a good guy.

And no, there is no point to this post other than to say "Hey...I'm getting a new truck. Isn't that neat?"

Thanks. I wish you could mail us some of that rain. We need it badly up here. We're still running about a 6" rainfall deficit from last year, which was just a parched mess.

Lions and tigers and bears...? OH MY!! (Sorry, couldn't resist )

Congrats on the new truck, OPCENTER. Mine should be in shortly - hopefully next week. You can be sure I'll be posting when it gets here just to say 'Hey isn't that neat?'
