Talking My first Superduty!

Bought it this weekend. I've been looking for a good long while. I even had a friend who goes to the auto auction looking for better than 2 months but no luck. Then I picked up an out-of-town newspaper while in a hospital waiting room. My budget dictated a used V10 but God smiled on me and I ended up with a 2001 F250 Crewcab Shortbed 4x4 Auto POWERSTROKE. 52000 one owner miles for $24,500 and the bed's even been rhino lined.

This is one happy camper.

Sounds like a AWESOME truck congrats and welcome to the club. I'm on my first Superduty too, 2002 CC XLT LB v10 3.73L. Bought it used last year, I have owned 2 full size Chebby's, 2 full size GMC's, a Toyota PU, a Ford Courier, and Ford Ranger, my Superduty so far has been the best truck I have ever owned period, I love it.
