Its mine unless I back out....
Right now this one is mine. Its reached FORD CPO status (pretty much a marketing ploy in this case) which has gone through 169 point inspection, qualifies for a very short 3 month 3000 mile limited warranty and the new 6 year 100,000 mile powertrain warranty. The powertrain warranty does not apply but for about 2 months.
I'm supposed to pick it up tomorrow afternoon. Still have not put any money down yet. They accepted me on faith. I exhausted my search for a V10 over the last 5 months and went back to a diesel. Sure, enough, looks like diesel is headed even higher today. Oh well. I only drive about 25-30,000 miles a year. Hopefully the better fuel economy of the diesel will pan out.
Here's some pictures.....

I don't want to rain on your parade, but I would make absolutely sure that it isn't a 6.0 liter. It has 6.0 badges and Fx4 stickers. They did make the 6.0 in 2003 as well as the 7.3. Just make sure.

Do it and we will help you spend your money and mod that sucker out!
Get it!
Edit: Oops, I think Jason is right. You need to make sure that isn't a 6.blow.

you are def right, the badges would indicate the late 03 6.0 engine vs the preferred 7.3

Are those 18" rims factory? They look like the 18" rims but I didn't think those became available until 05 with the suspension change? I've never been in a truck with bucket seats up front - I've gotta have a bench.
All that aside, that is one VERY NICE looking rig!!

Looks like a very CLEAN truck. It's definitely NOT a XL model....it's a Lariat. Hopefully that typo won't match the 7.3 like everybody else has mentioned. Price seems high......definitely try to get it down, most dealers are hurting for sales right now! Post a picture of the engine if they can send one to ya!

I like it too, all except for the bucket seats and I'm not a big crew cab fan, had one once and just didn't care for it. JMO, of course, love the low miles and if it is a 7.3 I would grab that in a NY second.
