You put a set of 24" rims / tires on it and I bet that will satisfy you for a while. It will completely change the look of the truck even when everything else is stock.


Oh, and congrats on the purchase! I was really happy to get back into a diesel again when we bought Andys.

Always liked that truck.. he has had some bad ass trucks in the past

That's why Dave got the spot free RO rinse system!

I wash mine at home and go to the self car wash at the corner just to use their spot free rinse. Drying a crew cab dually sucks. The ceramic coat and a leaf blower gets the job done for me. I’ll be buying a spot free resin filter soon.

I swear, I get compliments on it weekly. It's so freakin' clean people trip out. He kept it immaculate. I text him after I got it and was like, "dude, I think I got the better deal and under paid!"

If diesels are so awesome, how come nobody on here brags about their Diesel Boat? :p

Nice ride Dave... regardless of propulsion.

I’ve had a suv forever and was new to the truck “hauling whatever in the bed.” It’s been pretty useful so far. Found the trick online where you cut a 2x6 and slap some bunk/outdoor carpet from Home Depot on it so you can stop everything from rolling around in the bed.

Last year we went and looked at toy haulers and said “can’t pull any of these”. This summer we looked at boats and “can’t pull that”

I have had half ton SUV’s and trucks my entire life with no interest in stepping up to a diesel. With the size of our family though, that same sentence keeps popping up over and over so I decided to solve that problem once and for all. Lol

the new Family truckster.. 2016 F350 Platinum. Bought if off an rdp member / re customer. Truck looks new!

my f150 is flawless and a really nice truck. I’m going to be Selling it in a couple weeks.

Nice truck. After a couple of years of my Chevy having problems, and the fact that we travel around the country in the summer,I just bought a brand new Ford F-250 with the 6.7 Powerstroke and 10 spd trans. I’ve always been a die hard Chevy guy but this new Ford is a beast. So far, I’m very impressed.

I've had one in my truck since 2005, when in noticed the grooves in the bed of my King Ranch. I often keep it in the rear for ice chests.
