Picked up a 2001 f550 this morning. Nothing real fancy, 17.5k gvw, 12' pto dump, 7.3 powerstroke with 133k miles, manual transmission and roll up windows. I hope I can get another 75k-100k out of it over the next 10 yrs. Had to pay 12.5k for it, but lower mileage 7.3's are next to impossible to find locally. If it lasts, it will be worth it.

All in all, not a bad looking truck for a 10+ year old dump truck.

Just needs a brake controller and I'll be ready to go!

That is a nice looking truck for a 10 year old work truck. And, the 7.3 is the best motor ford put in those trucks! I doubt you'll be disappointed. Let's see some photos of it at work :thumbsup:

Hello fellow member from North Carolina. That's a nice looking truck. From the photos, it appears that it's been well maintained and taken care of.:)

Nice looking truck. I'd love to find an extended cab, 4x4 F-550 like yours.

Crossroads ford (commercial) in cary nc has a 4x4, crew cab, 12' dump, 7.3L with under 100k on it, IIRC, they were asking like 18k... May or may not be on the website yet, a salesman called me a couple days ago when they got it.

I checked after you mentioned it, they have a description but no picture. Too bad it's an automatic.
