New PSD(2 weeks ago)
I bought a new 2001 PSD crew cab F-250 4x4 XLT 6-speed 2 weeks ago and I hope everybody likes theirs as much as I like mine. I've owned 4 other Ford trucks in the past and I think this is going to top them all. My wife even likes it and she doesn't like big vehicles. Worth every dime. Had to brag a little,but it's hard not to driving a Ford.

Hey John,
you get use to the added length of the Crew Cab amazingly quick. After having mine I don't want to go back to a regular or a ext. cab.

I have alot of fun with drive thru windows that have a tight turn in them. usually wind up hitting the curbs. I think it will be even more fun when I get the DRW's installed lol.

I've been driving PSD's for 5 years and there is nothing bad I can say about them. I had a 95 PSD,then a 97 PSD for work trucks.No problems whatsoever with either of them. Now I own my very own 99 F250 SD PSD 6spd and can't get enough of it even after 5 years of driving them for work.Can't wait to tow the boat with it......Les

I am hoping that by the time I get back to the states in 4 years I can pick up a good used Powerstroke engine with a 6 speed behind it froma a wrecking yard to put in my 86. For some reason I think that would be cool as He**. It would definatly make people wonder just what in the world you did to that 6.9 lol. Seriously though. We have been using powerstrokes for the last couple of years now and have had no problems what so ever with them. Believe me, if the Air Force can't kill it then it must be indestructable.

Brad, I think the 6.9 is indestructable I have pulled trees right out of the ground with mine I don't know what it was used for before I got it but I have really used it since I got it.

It is hard not to brag with a ford. I just bought a Red and silver 2001 crew cab PSD which the dealer had as a demo. The dealer put a 4 1/2" spring lift and 33" tires on it, plus a spray-in bedliner and a bullit grill. It's got the captn chairs up front factory fog lights, a nerf step bar, etc.. I'm liking it lots..
