I'm 26 and bought my 2002 F-250 Lariat Crew Cab 4X4 PSD last night. This is one sweet truck. I was towing our 25', 5,500 pound travel trailer with my wife's Tahoe. The Tahoe is an inadequate tow vehicle. I LOVE this Ford. I never thought I would say that being a die hard Chevy guy all my life. I am catching a lot of grief from my family and friends who know that I have been a Chevy lover forever, but it's worth it! Matt

Well I'm a little late but oh well,
I was 17 when I got my 2002 F-250 5.4 Reg cab. I actucally got the truck about 2 weeks before I was 18 and had the loan, It helps to work on the Ag loan officer's farm
, And yes this is my own money (or at least my name is on the loan, not cosigned), and up until last fall when I started going to college I paid everything but insurance. Now since I'm paying for my own school, my folks help me out with fuel and insurance, which is 1800/year I believe.
Sorry for being so long winded, but its good to see some other younger Superduty owners out there.

Im 17 and have owned my 00 F-250 reg. cab 5 speed for a year and a half. I bought it with my own money, and searched for about 6 months on the internet before I found it. So far I have made many mods to it, including making my own headache rack, with rails.

Not sure what the cutoff is for being young, but I was once told you are only as old as you feel. I am 33, some days I feel 83, but feeling young today! I have a 2004 F250 4X4 fully paid for, and 2005 F350 4X4 not paid for, at least not for another 5 years. Nothing was handed to me, both are a result of hard labor since the age of 16. I was always a Chevy guy, then had nothing but problems with them. Then for a short while I was die hard Dodge Ram guy until I bought a 97 Ram 1500 4X4. Transmission rebuilds every 15-20000 miles, and a slew of other B.S. problems. I can get A plan because my dad works for Ford. I liked the way the Superdutys looked, researched , and decided I could not do without one. These have to be the best trucks ever made. I have razzed by die hard Chevy guys that Ford is a 4 letter word. My answer is always yes it is a 4 letter word, but I would rather buy a Ford and be FORD (ED) , than buy a Chevy and be _ _ _ _ E D!!

I thought 38 was young. I have owned 3 150's previously and am now the proud owner of an 05 350 CC 6.0 Auto LB 4X4 Lariat Dark Stone w/Arizona Beige everything but a moonroof. Absolutely love it. 18,000 problem free miles.

I'm 25 and picked up the 99 F250 Powerstroke when I was 22. My wife is 26 and we picked up her 00 Excursion Powerstroke late in 03.
The full insurance on the F250 has always been around $800-900 per year and the Excursion is around $1,300 per year. It helps having the 5 vehicle full insurance discount!!!
