Bought a Super Duty last week!

I really like this truck so far!!!



It's a 1999 Super Duty with the 7.3 PSD. It was a one owner truck from Omaha, and is pretty well equipped. All power options, tow package, larger tires, locking differentials, on the fly 4x4, etc.

Here are a few more pictures:Index of /Pictures/SuperDuty

Nice truc Thomas. I have an 01 that is red and love the truck. I just wish diesel was cheaper so I could afford to drive it more.

Thanks guys! Yeah, it's one of my favorite colors also.

Installed a factory CD player from an '04 tonight to replace the tape deck. I'm planning to get the front windows tinted next week to match the factory rears.

I've thought about doing that, the tinting. Thought it would look good with an all black truck!

Hey Thomas, you should shoot an email to Jake (jseim44) and ask him to put your truck pic in the photobucket site. He might be able to copy that pic from the post also.

Nice pickup, best color of blue that I have seen on a pickup like that. I had and 01 that looked similar to that but green and had a V10 in it. I agree, tinting the front windows to match the rear makes it look alot better in my opnion, good luck keeping it that clean, that could be a full time job in itself.

That's no lie Anthony, owning a black truck, I feel his pain when it comes to keeping it clean!

I got the front windows tinted to match the rears today, and they turned out perfect! My tint guy does an awesome job! If any of you guys in or near Lincoln need a good place to get your cars tinted, let me know and I'll pass along his info.

I'm going to remove the side body molding and pinstripe to clean it up a bit, and give it a little newer look. Then I'll take it out to a friends detail shop and let him work his magic on the paint. I'll take a bunch of good pictures once that is done.
