Very Excited

I'm new to the board...posted first time about my 96 Bronco the other day in the "introduce yourself area". Anyway...I've been in the market for a used F350 to tow my Toyhauler and I found a good deal and fell in LUV! I'll be picking it up this afternoon if all goes as planned.Being it's a 2003 and buying it from a dealer..I'm not sure about all the aftermarket suspension/lift kit/,etc. that's on it.What I can tell you is that it has 275 70R 22.5 tires and it is as close as I want to get to driving a MONSTER truck..LOL. You boys will like it I think and even if ya don't,,,,this girl sure does. I will post pics when I get it home and I'm sure I will be on here alot...picking all your brains. I love these forums...I've learned all about my Jetboat on my yamaha site. Well..enuff,,,I'll be back later...thanks for listening!!

Margaret

Get the dealer to print out an OASIS report for you and go over everything that was done under warranty. Post it on here for verification because we won't BS you! Well, some of us might.
Sounds like a dually too with the 22.5" rims. Buyer beware and do your homework.

Truck is Home !!

Man....I am so EXCITED!!!! This truck is so much more than I expected...it's got the 7.3L motor to answer you krewat. It runs great and looks AWESOME.
SWEEEEET. I am going to take it by Speed & Truck World on Saturday just to shed some light on everything and get a list of the aftermarket stuff that's on it. The dealer wasn't too knowledgeable about the goodies on it. It's got this monstrous power winch on the front that's got a remote control that plugs into it to operate it.The cable on the winch is .500" diameter thick.I'll have more info later. The body is FLAWLESS.I think I got a great deal. After you guys see the pics..let me know what you think. What's the best way(format) to upload/post pics? Thanks!

Later!
