Well, Some people think I am crazy for doing this, but I sold my loaded up 2013 F150 Lariat Super Crew for the following...It is a 1997 Ford F250 extended cab, long box, 4x4 with the legen-----wait-for-it-----DARY 7.3L Powerstroke. This thing has the original paint, and zero (you read that right) rust! Not bad for 160k miles! Frame, body, everything is rust free and original! And the best part is that I have no payments on this old girl (bought a little commuter car for work and have this for a garage queen/boat hauler)!!!

I loathe newer Fords but that has always been my favorite body style of Ford truck......with the best engine they ever made. Nice find!
 
Thanks guys. If anyone was ever debating on putting a chip/programmer in their coal burner, all I can say is they are no joke. A CAI and the TS Performance 6 position chip have really changed this thing for the better. Hope everyone has a good winter and be safe out there.
 
You'll have to keep me updated on how you like that truck with the Hemi in it. I love the 4th Gen Dodges, and would love a Cummins, but I don't like the price tag that comes with them!!!

Love the color too!!!

I work for Freightliner and see the ISB Cummins with the crap emissions systems and DEF fluid all have issues. I did not want to deal with all that BS is the only reason i did not go with the Cummins. I have had 2 dodges in the past with the Cummins engine and loved them both. MY dad still has a 2007 ram with the 6.7 that i took all the emissions crap off of and runs so much better. just couldn't see buying at 70k truck just to remove all the stuff and void the warranty.

As for the 6.4 the power is there, seems to lack a little low take off power. i think is due to the weight of the truck and how restrictive the exhaust is. i will be putting exhaust on it anyway so i will see how it reacts. as for overall power it has plenty.
 
Thanks guys, I love it. And my buddy from work has a vinyl cutter. Sorry Keith, it was just easier to have him cut them. Headed to the Chesapeake over Memorial Day if you want to visit Keith.
