TWO! Ford trucks

Well, I did not plan to buy two trucks at the same auction- let alone two Ford trucks- but, it happened... $9300 with all TTL got me a 97 F-350 PSD auto with 211k and a 01 Ranger 4.0L auto with 120k. I was able to drive both before bidding so I knew they were tight and no apparent problems.
They replace a 96 Chevy 6.5dsl dually AND a 1990 Volvo 240DL, each with around 180k. I need to sell both, but don't think I will break even on the swap, but it might be close.
Someone spent alot of money on the F-350 not long before releasing it. All new hoses, belt, glow plugs, batteries and a spotless engine. All I need to do is swap my custom bumper off my Chevy and add a trailer brake and I am ready to haul. Love the power upgrade over the Chevy!

[Now I need to get me a sig...]

Welcome to FTE

Sounds like you got a good deal there on a couple good trucks.
We've got forums here for both of them as well as seperate forums for their engines etc.
Feel free to post any questions or answers that come up.
Have fun
