Picking up my "New to Me" truck on Mon!!

Picking up my new to me 2008 F350 SWB DRW V10 XLT 4x4 24k mi on Monday. Trading in my 06 250 5.4 as it needed tires, exhaust, new hubs, u-joints, and who knows what else. This new truck is more of a toy for me as the 250 was a landscape workhorse (business discontinued next year). The F350 will be my Friday and Weekend ride Would love a new truck but no way would the budget allow for a truck near this configuration. I'm sure I'll run into some issues along the way as dealers tend to lack in the "care" department for their used trucks. But thats what FTE is for!!!

You found a very nice Super Duty. The shortbed dually is a "hard to find" option. Well done!

Very cool! I don't think I would ever need a dually, but man would I love to have that truck. I think the dually short bed crew cabs are so cool looking, especially in black!

For good reason. It is a pointless configuration.

Well this thread had a decent tone going but there's always a bad apple in the bunch ;-)

I'm closing my business and this is more of a toy. If it makes you feel better I had an ext cab longbed.

I would have loved to found a pointless configuration like that when I was looking. Enjoy the V10!

Ever heard of different strokes for different folks? How about someone with a family that has a large pull trailer?
