Default Trade?

I'm sure about everyone on here has seen my truck , but just wondering yalls opinion. I have been thinking about getting rid of my truck for something else just because I like getting different vehicles a lot but anyways I got offered a trade on a 95 f250 ext cab 4x4 7.3 today. I have always wanted a 7.3 but have Kind of decided to Keep the centurion just didnt take the ad down. Here's the ad on it, what is yalls opinion ? Would you do it?

Don't...if you get a 7.3 get a 96+ alot easier to buy chips and upgrades. All you can really do with a 95- is exhaust and Turbo. IMO.

centurion is rare but the 7.3 is cool... hmmm.. your centurion is nice and straight though and that truck looks a little beat- which way are you leaning?

If you can get a truck with a 7.3 go for it. The 7.3 was the best diesel ever made.

That is totally worth it. That thing is clean and nice! It will have more power, last longer, and with the chip get better mpg then ur f150. I would do it in a heartbeat

if you do trade, I would suggest either re-programing the auto locks to a new switch or just disable it, but 7.3's are da*n near unstopable motors and will last a long time

I wouldn't do it. The "chip" in that thing is a paperweight. Find the newer generation super duty.
