1989 f250 6.9l diesel pulling question

Hi All,

I have a chace to buy an F250 ext cab 4x4 diesel with 192000 on it. Can it pull a 3800-4000lb trailer for camping? Thanks for any help. Also is it hard to change out a bow as the one I'm getting is dented bad.Thanks again,
Mike

Many IDI's pull a lot more weight than that, 4k is nothing, is it going to be the first one there, NO, Will it get you there, If properly maintained YES!

They are not race trucks, but they'll pull your house to the camp site!

A bow, Isn't that something that shoots arrows ...

I assume you meant bed!
Bed bolts can be difficult if they are rusted, other wise the weight is the hardpart.

-Enjoy
