Talking New Truck!

Bought a new (to me) 2003 Ford F250 7.3 today! Have been on this site a lot for help w/ my dads 6.0 but now I have a truck of my own. List: 6637, Tuner, Ditch the tonneau cover, Mats, Gooseneck hitch, Foil Delete, and chrome running boards...and i'm sure ill think of more. Oh and the best part it only has 30,000miles!! Anyway heres some pictures.




Brought it home, then 5 minutes later it had a trailer behind it

Beautiful truck!

Extended cab 4x4's are hard to find with a short bed. Long beds, no problem. But a short bed? Hard to find!

Got any interior pictures?

I was wondering about that myself. The people I bought it from put new tires on it so they are good but I was wondering about the brakes. May take the wheels off and see what everything looks like under there.

Very nice looking rig!

I paid more than I wanted, and probably more than the truck is worth, but after looking for over a year I couldn't stand to let this one slip by. I ended up paying $25,500. I live in North Georgia, and the truck was about 3 hours away in Bostic, North Carolina at Sisk Auto Sales. If you are looking for a low mileage 7.3 they are the ones to call.They have all their trucks on autotrader Really nice people. They get one in with 80,000 or less miles about every two or three months. They are also in the process of buying the local ford dealer, so they will be moving there soon.

Thanks for all the compliments,
Kevin
