I Just Ordered 2008

I just Factory ordered a 2008 F250 Super Duty V10 4.3gears , trailer brake controller and all the other towing goodies. Any one have comments on the 08 or 07 V10 250. My last 2 trucks were the F150's. Nice trucks but not up to towing my 7600 pound trailer.

You will love it. My father has a 2001 F-250 with the V-10 and he pulls a fifth wheel that weighs I believe 9100 lbs. You have lots more power than he does. His pulls the trrailer with ease

I went from a F150 to a F250 FX4 this year. As much as I loved the F150 it just wasn't in the same ballpark as the F250. One was a funny looking car while the other is... well, a truck.

You will love this, you'll hardly notice the 7600 pound trailer.

Yes I did get the price. Actually less than the 07 I built online, however I also bought the rear seat DVD player, a new option on the 08. It was an extra $1300, but with 2 kids, ages 4 and 8 its worth every penny. I still came out under 39K.
