Well aware of the modding, I just don't have the time for it, or would not be an issue. I also learned my lesson on mods, insurance wont cover them when the truck is totaled, and I lost a lot on my last truck when it got wrecked.
I'm also very hesitant about spending money on aftermarket lights, had a few that were extremely bad.
About the power boars, that reminds me, I need to get some mud flaps before winter.

oh man, I really hate when they put a really nice used truck right at the entrance. 2015 King Ranch F250 in white. If I didn't have the topper and bedrug in the truck, or put the shocks and brakes on it, the F150 would have been gone today! If that truck had been on the lot when I bought the current one, would not have looked back, just got in and go.

I really really like my 2016 f350xl drw 4x4. Its got the power equipment package, and cloth seats with a great aftermarket stereo I added with 2 cameras. Perfect comfy work truck pretty comparable to my 13 F150 STX.

My dealer has a 2015 F250 KR Powerstoke. I may consider it if they can meet my price. I have a ballpark figure in mind. It has 92K miles on it, but it should go 300K before needing repairs, at least I would hope.
What does maintenance cost now on these? If anything the first thing would be a remote filter setup for extended oil intervals.

Dealer cost with full synthetic is about 130 using the upgrade 5w40 MC full synthetic. I do mine at 5
to 6k at the dealer, only because with my extended warranty and not wanting any complications if issues would come up during the first 125k. The fuel filters I do at 15k, but the book says like 20k I think. The local dealers lead tech recommends 15k, playing it safe. I drain some fuel from the frame rail mounted water seperator every few weeks and have never found any water, but only get my diesel at two places locally and at busy truck stops on trips if at all possible. I also use Power Service Diesel Kleen about every other tank to help keep any moisture out of the system.
