I like that unit. What I find odd is the history on it. Check out the google link and see how many dealers have had that truck in the past 600 miles or so.

Not really.

2011 + F350 4x4 Supercab w/6.2L Petrol engine. Standard bed. I may have to go with a 4 door, -( would rather purchase from a privet seller vs dishonest dealership thieves ). Color isn't that big of issue on the outside, but must have the darkish grey or black for the interior (it's just badass). 100,000 miles max. Of course, I'd acquire a tuner for that engine, since they are seriously de-tuned for the F350. Ford left a lot on on table.That engine is an animal tuned lol. They tuned them for the 550's and the Raptor, but left them tame in the 1tons. Learning as I go, - glad I got away from the diesel kick!

Ill keep an eye out just to see if I come across your perfect truck. I didnt know they detuned them so much in the one tones. I know I couldnt justify a diesel's upkeep cost. Def, more oil, block heaters, fuel gelling up when its cold, just too much going on.

Is this a long bed? Or is it standard?
