Back in a Ford
Hi all, I took advantage of huge discounts and bought a leftover 09 F350 CC/LWB/4x4/XLT/6.4/3.55 for a great price. I sold my 06 Dodge 2500 Quad Cab/LWB 4x2 5.9 Cummins last year. Was a great truck, but no comparison to this new 350. I have had 5 F150's, including the venerable 302, 5.4, and 4.6, and this is my first Superduty. At the time I had owned so many fords for so long I was sick of them, tried something new.
I did not buy a ESP warranty, but would like to know if you can buy one anytime before 3/36 expires?
How do you what Job build the truck is?
Is the factory security/alarm system worth it? Dealer wanted $695, I didn't buy it, but am a little worried about theft.
Thank you, good to be back in a Ford.

Yes you can. You can also buy a Dieselcare warranty for up to 200k miles, and if you buy it before the 3/36 runs out you can cover more engine components.

You would start by finding the build date on the window sticker. But I'm not sure how to determine the job start/stop dates.

It won't be factory either way. Just dealer installed. Maybe shop around and compare features and prices, and consider including remote start.
