Finally pulled the trigger...
and bought an 05 F-350 Lariat CC 6.0L SRW. The color is stone and beige metallic. I love it. Makes my Subaru WRX wagon look like a match box...lol.

Oh a get this... I have also purchase 3yr/36k mile Ford Basecare ESP with it. The truck has 42k mile on it. I looked at the contract twice so I know it's a Ford ESP.

Two turbo charged vehicles FTW..!

Pics to come...

Congrats on the truck, after a while you'll wonder how you ever got along without it.

Thanks guys...

I got a chance to tow my 23ft boat yesterday. (5100lbs with the trailer) I had to get on the pedal coming out of a gas station and was pleasently surprised by the power of the diesel. What a truck.... I am going to get new tires for the stock wheels by fall.

Any recommedations?
