Lost another one! Frustrated!
O.K. I've only been on here a few days and maybe that is why I haven't found a truck yet.
In the last week I have traveled to buy a 97 F350 dually that was not as described so I didn't buy.
Then I found a 96 F350 dually closer to my house and thought I had it bought and the guy calls me back and sold it out from under me!
This is just the latest in 5 months of looking for a 95-97 F350 dually diesel with no results. My budget is $7500 max so maybe that is my problem?
I will pull a car trailer with it sometimes that will max out at 7000 pds. and a cattle trailer that could go as high as 13-14000 pds. So I would rather have a F350 dually to be safe than a F250, right?
Maybe I'll find one one day.
Just had to vent!
Sorry

That's the way it goes. I have been looking for my dream truck for two years now. Maybe once every 3 months one comes up for sale, but for some reason I don't get it. Yes, it does get really frustrating. Just remember not to buy anything that you don't really want or that is overpriced. If you want a 1 ton dually, don't settle for a 3/4 because you will never really be happy.

Thanks but I literally look at Craigslist, ebay, autotrader and a few others about 30 times a day.
The 94 you posted I have already went and looked at. It was junk! The guy (kid) selling it was 18 and had had it 3 months. He was clueless and the truck had more defects than Paris Hilton.
I'm specifically looking for a 95-97 F350 Dually PSD. Automatic or manual doesn't matter and crew cab. We have a 3 yr. old and 1 yr. old so sometimes there will be car seats.

I feel your pain ! it took me about 8 months to find mine. made a 700 mile round trip to see a real junker that looked great in the pics. I left that one behind. just take your time & the right one will turn up. Now that I have mine I almost miss the searching (i still check ebay every now & again )
