I agree 100% I like the looks of the truck better without the topper. But plan on using it for a day or so as a camper. We fish a few spots its hard to get a 41ft 16,000 lb camper into. So going to fix a bed and stuff in the bed of the truck. Throw a memory foam mattress on it and use the topper to sleep in at night.
I may have found a small popup truck camper. And if that deal works out, I will be putting this topper up for sale. As I can have the Truck camper in and out of the truck fast. Where it will take 30 minutes to an hour to remove the Topper and everything I plan on building the bed of the truck.
Took a 16ft boat I have been playing with to the river this evening. And it was the first time driving the truck, with the topper. Not sure if it was it and the boat. But sure can tell it all was there. Boat has 3 Group 27 batters in it, 80 lb thrust trolling motor. Along with a 40hp Mercury on back. Not sure it will like my 19ft lund. AS it will weight 4X what this little John boat weights.

I have a 15 ft polar kraft with a Nissan 40 and had it loaded down with two kayaks, two commercial crab traps, and I believe a group 29 battery, and barely noticed it back there.
That being said, if I'm towing either of my 20 ft boats my overdrive is turned off. Lol

So maybe prioritize a 6.0 250 over a 3v 5.4.....? I really need a crew cab for the space. Also, whats deleted and studded? I havent come across those terms in any ads yet. Ill google it. Thanks. Id like to stick with a 150 just to be able to stick around here. Yalls are great help. I just think newer trucks are ugly.

Well, it wasnt today, but saturday i did the worst thing possible. .. a dodge pulled right out in front of me while i was doing 55. Rolled 2.5 times. I came out of it rather well. A cracked rib, torn extensor tendon, separated shoulder, 20 stitches, 2 staples in the back of my head and a partridge in a pear treeeeeee!
Banged you up quite a bit though...jeesh. Sounds like you going to be alright since your kind of shopping and all lol. Lucky Lucky, -glad to hear it man.

Why not get a 03 supercrew? I mean you know these trucks are reliable you know the MPG these trucks get and all that and you get the crew cab you want.

I'm glad you weren't more hurt. That looks terrible. If something were to happen to my truck, I'd be pressed to jump into a F250 of the same Generation or pull on my big boy pants and make payments on a new King Ranch. The super Duty's from these years look great. It's so nice, not thinking about a car payment though. Trucks these days quickly price up to $50k.
I hate to admit this, but I like the new Dodge/Ram trucks.
It was dangerous for me to be at the dealership the other day for the wife.
