New Truck

I did it. Traded a pretty good 04 for a new 06 as follows;

F350, Crew Cab, 6.0, Auto, FX4, Lariat, True Blue Met w/ Arizona Beige 2 Tone, Tan Leather, Long Bed, 18" Premium Forged Alumunumn, Power Rear Slider, Power Moon Roof, Clearance Lights, Tow Command, Upfitter switches...

First observations from the 04; a little more quite, turns shorter, sits about 2" higher, a little more power, with less turbo lag. I love it and hope to drive this one for many years to come.

I will say I have been using this site for about three years now, and it has been very helpful. A lot of interesting posts, most are very helpful. Thanks, Levi

Congrat's on the new 350. I am thinking of doing the same. My dealer I bought the truck from is not willing to deal. With the extra $2500 loyalty I was hoping to get into an 06 for 5-7 thousand difference. I think they can do that. They say they cant.
