hello there, im new to diesel, i live in virginia, and i was thinking of getting a F250 Diesel 4x4 ext cab. I was wondering if you guys had any thoughts on this subject?? Is there a year people prefer? is there a engine that is more reliable then another? etc... any information you guys have on buying one would be great!!! how relaible are they? they ok in the winter?? Im gonna be using it for mostly just driving to and from work every day and sometime towing a car trailer or towing tree stumps and limousines.
