New Truck!

Following the traumatic death of my previous truck I've been looking for a good deal on a 2011 PSD truck. I finally found it! I just bought a 2011 crew cab, short box, XLT, 4x4 truck. Has the tailgate step, XLT premium package, rapid heat, and upfitter switches. I only have one pic at the moment, I'll post better ones tomorrow.

After driving almost 100 miles in it, I can safely say that this thing is AMAZING. Very noticeable that this thing has more power than my last 6.4L truck did. It's quieter, more refined, and much more efficient. From the dealer to my house, which is about 50 miles mostly highway, I got 19.6 MPG on the trip computer.

I'm pretty confident I'll be able to see a solid 20 MPG on the freeway once it's broken in. Once again, it's a really amazing truck!

Congrats on the new truck! The new 6.7 diesel looks to be amazing. I like the color as well! My 10 is Ingot Silver.

Very nice man! Good to see you getting back on your feet after that accident. Could you do us all a favor and post a pic of the engine bay when you get a chance?
