Got A New 2005 PSD F-250 SD SC 4X4!!!!
Hello everyone,
Picked up my new 2005 PSD on 10/22/05 (F-250 SC 4X4). I traded a 2000 F-250 SD SC 4X4 with a 5.4L gas burner that had a 120K and not a minutes worth of trouble, it was a great truck, but severely lacked in the power department and got anywhere from 10 to 12 mpg.
All I can say about the new 05 is WOW!!!!!! what a difference. It has 685 miles and is getting anywhere from 16 to 17 mpg with mixed city and highway driving. The power is amazing, why I didn't go diesel before is beyond me. Granted diesel is high, but I wouldn't trade it for the anything at this point and time. We'll keep ya posted. Will send pics soon.

I know that smile all to well. I'm loving my new rig, friends with their 99's are having a ball comparing, I'm pretty sure Ford is getting a couple more orders!
ntobias1, did you take your stickers off with a heat gun? If I have time mine are coming off this weekend.

The longer they stay on the harder they are to take off though...

Congrat's!!!!
ntobias1,
Congrat's on the new truck.
I'm sorry to hear you got the 18's, BECAUSE THEY WERE OUT OF THEM WHEN I ORDERED MY 2005 F-250!!!!!!!!!
Really, the 18's look great, and glad to see someone got them!
