Finally did it!!

My dealer let my take a 2006 4 door F250 lariat 4x4 forthe weekend. I brought it back to the dealer this morning the PSD pulled my 29 baja outlaw great! Boat on a triple axel trailer comes in at 9000 lbs. BUT decided on the exact sme truck With A V10!!! 4.10 rear end LS. All the goodies including a power moon roof. I have been lurking here for a while I am trading a 2004 F150 lariat 2wd. It will be here tommorow evening cant wait to get it!! I was gong to wait for the new 2008 but decided to say screw it. I wanted the 4.30 rearend but not one in whole country so I had to settle for 4.10 did I make a good deal??? $34.3k they gave me $20K for the f150 which I owe 4K on.................Thanks for the V10 info on this board

Yes you made a great deal!

As long as the trade, and out the door$$ got you the truck you wanted, you are in tall cotton!

And you are going to love the 3v V10 once she gets all broken in.

Welcome to FTE and the3 BSEG club!!

I only have 600 on my V10 so far and am noticing considerable improvements. I can't wait for this thing to get fully broke in. She's awesome.

Welcome to the club. Sounds like a great deal. How the heck did you get 20K for a 2wd f-150? I gotta find this dealer.

Good luck with your truck.

Congrats on the new truck. Be ready for lots of high revs and about 7-9 mpg towing that beast.

$20k with 48k miles. I really need to go to that dealer. When I was toying with buying a new truck, they were only giving me 17K for my 03 F-250 V10 auto XLT Sport with leather 4x4 in absolutely mint and I mean mint condition with 55k Miles.

Good for you. Nice to hear when the dealer takes it in the pants.

Congrats. You will love the V10. Mine has 13K miles now and has really loosened up in the last 7K miles.
