I had the bed liner sprayed in and a B&W Hitch installed ... they told me to refrain from hauling for a couple days to help the bed liner dry.

I too have been having the urge to buy a new one, and a very good possibility a new Ford would be my choice.....
Havent been a Ford guy since 1985, but Government Motors changed that.

Blu.. beautiful truck..:thumbsup:

Guys keep buying them Fords.. My Ford stock is not doing all that well, (I am under water on the price) I could use some help here!

Very nice. I am partial to the Fords. What is the GVWR on your truck and what gear does it have? Also, please keep us up to date on the mpg. I have a 06 F-350 SRW with the diesel and the high 11,500# GVWR kit. I know it will not last forever and like you I dont really want another diesel seeing that gas is much cheaper upfront.

Yeah Blue, Big Congrats also !
Like someone else said I also have a 2011 6.7 Scorpion crew 4X4. Going on 35,000 miles no troubles to report on so far.

You traded a Dodge for a Ford. I gasp as I clutch my chest in pain. You sound like the kind of guy that would sell your kids to the highest bidder!

All joking aside, it looks like a really nice truck and I'm sure you are going to enjoy it.

I have had a crew cab Silverado 2013 in the driveway for the past 3 weeks(4x4). It's a rental but I sure understand the itch. Neighbors were already talking about me buying it, lol. Now they probably think I hit the lotto because I just pulled a HUGE fifth wheel trailer into the driveway Saturday, (again not mine). I just went and picked it up for a co-worker of a.good friend. It's for sale.
Nice truck...

10K GVWR ... 3.73 gears ... my driving has been local short runs and the computer says avg 14.6 mpg. Friday I have to haul a mule 200 miles north and will be pulling a 20' stock trailer. I'll see then.
