(New Here) F-250 Help
Alright ill be looking for a F-250 in two years or so for my first truck.(vehicle at that) Ok i am going to be looking into a 97 or 98 or a lil below with the old body style. (i love that body) Powerstroke, Reg cab or ext cab, 4X4. Ok i will be wanting to get a lift MAYBE. But what would the biggest tire size i can go on stock height? Also what is a good exhaust? and What kinda mileage would i get?
Still kicking!!

Dont rule out the new superduties. They are a nice truck and have a great style. The solid axle makes lifting one very easy. Tire size is no problem with a superduty. Personally I like the newer superduties over the old style. It might be hard to get an old style truck like you want. Much easier to get a superduty.
