I DO miss the wing windows!! LOL If you're comparing bone stock trucks - I like the Superduty. But lifted and all done up - I still think the 94-97 trucks look real darn tough.

Either way - it's a win-win!! Long live Ford diesels!!

I voted "As long as it is a ford". When I started looking for my 250, I looked at all years. All looked great but when it came time to buy one the budget and milage factors won and I bought a 2000. If I had the cash, I would buy one of each body style .

given the limited choices in the poll, "as long as it's a ford" is my choice for a nod to the pre-poll styles. I have an '02, but a guy i worked with from CT had an '89 and it was great.

The reason I didn't include pre 94.5 is this forum is a PSD forum. If we were to throw all body styles in this poll I would have to vote for the 73-79s personally. But that poll would have to go in the GAD forum.

Man I like the 99's to 04's. The last square truck I had was an 88 F-250 gasser.

And the winner is......... anyone that's driving what they want to drive. I'd say we're all winners.

Yet another lover of the '97 F-250HD XLT.
Heck of a lot easier to get under the hood too, around the turbo and what-not.

I went with the 97. Not just because I own one. I have also owned a 99 and a 2002 Lariat and I loved that leather interior and new car smell. I have found that I get far more compliments on my 97 from other people than I did with my 2002.
