Switching...Chevy to Ford!

Howdy from Texas! I currently own a 2001 Chevy Silverado 1500 Z71 with 85K miles on it (leasing it...over big time on miles). It's been a good truck, but I've always wanted a Ford. So, this week, I'm trading in the Chevy for a Ford F-250 XLT diesel! I'm very excited, and have found this forum to be very informative. I'm hoping this truck will last a very long time (my Dad had a 1980 F-150 that lasted well over 200K). I don't do a lot of towing (yet), but I do haul my dirt bikes around. I really like the looks of the F-250, and I can't wait to take delivery!

Turned in the Chevy last night, said goodbye, and drove off in my new F-250. Absolutely love it. Stay tuned....
