Finally did it!!

Well, I finally bought a new (slightly used) F-350.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...MEWA%3AIT&rd=1

It is everything that I wanted (KR, CC, Quad Captain seats, and of course 4x4). Since I am still deployed, I had my parents go pick it up for me yesterday. I am coming back next month so just in time. I was a little cautious about buying it off ebay but it is one of those dealerships that only sell though ebay. Luckly they were near my home town so no shipping costs.

Nice ride. I bet you won't answer the phone when it ring at home. In fact you won't even be home, you'll be driving your new truck.

I talked with my dad last night (he is taking care of it for me) and sounds like I am going to need a pry bar when I get home to get him off of it. He did say that He filled it up with gas, ordered a manual for it (didn't have one), and got a Texas A&M receiver hitch for it. So he spent around 200 dollars on my truck. Gig 'Em

Beautiful Truck Mike!! Are you going to work it or is it mostly for crusing? Just curious. I have a 250 XLT, not nearly as nice as your KR, and it was tough putting the 1st load of drywall and all my tools in it.

I can't even imagine running that bad-boy thru Home Depot and loading in all sorts of material...she's just too nice. But in either case, congrats and look forward to seeing more pics down the road.
