Superduty Upgrade

My '05 was a problem child the entire 3 years I had it. It just broke down again and I decided enough was enough. I traded it in on an '08 King Ranch. Thanks to the posts on here, I learned about the wide track option just before buying a truck without it. Believe it or not, I was able to locate one with it (only one that showed up in Texas on dealer search) and it happened to be the color I wanted. I bought it Monday night and I love it! The difference between the ride in the new truck and my '05 Lariat is night and day.

Thanks to everyone that posts info on this site. It really helped me pick out a truck with all the options that I need (and a few I didn't need but just wanted).

It has a wider front axle to make the turning radius tighter.. Allows the steer wheels to turn sharper..

Wide track is an option available on F350 DRW that improves turning radius. I tink it makes the truck handle better overall, but that could just be me though.
