Thanks yeah it does feel good.
I'm kinda leaning towards an older F-250 with a 6.9l,7.3IDI or even an early 7.3L powerstroke.

Congrates on the test Jacob. On the turn you should have told him you drive and damn truck and we don't do those sissy turns. We instead we either jump the curb and/or ditch, or on certian occasions, we bump up the Tuner and power slide the *** end around. Then you could have said "here hold my beer and I'll show you".

Barry- that is too funny, I just got a text like that last week. Something about 99.99% of people say oh shiit before going into a ditch and the other .01% say "hold my beer and watch this". Made me think of most of us on here when I read it

For that money, if it runs and has good shoes on, it would be a good deal. You've been here long enough to know what to look for. I wish you could find you a good later model 7.3, but you got to start some where.

Congrats on the test Jacob. Not too long ago i was in the same shoes as you. Wish i had a picture of my ole beater. Stacks on that thing could use a trim down to flush with the cab, but good looking none the less

Thanks for asking Cris. We had a great, relaxing weekend. It was down to about 30 on Friday night. Brrrr. Thanks to heaters and "cuddling". The campground was awesome. We are planning to go back again next summer when it is warmer so we can swim in the lake. The campground was on an island with a view of another island. Trees turning colors. Heaven. A great way to celebrate the anniversary.
