Any F550 owners out there?

Just got an '01 F550 4wd yesterday. Going to use it for a farm service truck. Came out of northern Indiana from an electrical company. Just wondered if there were any 550 owners on here. Look forward to chattin with y'all. Casey.

I have a late 1999 tow beast. It tows the Cedar Creek 36RLTS very well.
Bfife has one too and his trailer is even bigger!

Nice rig Dan. What gears does your truck have? 4.88s? I'll have some pics on here soon.

We plan on having the box repainted and a few other things done as well. This truck sat next to a building that caught on fire so it has a few melted pieces on it. The passenger mirror, the turn signal lens will be replaced and the grill is a little deformed but we can live with that.

Looks like one heck of a work horse rig you got there. Nice truck.

Just wondering if anyone has come acrossed something like this before... it looks like a oil bypass filter but it has wiring going to it and on the side it says 12 volts 150 watts so I'm thinking oil heater? What do yall think?
