Very nice, I one day dream of having a truck and trailer to tow mine after making it more of an offroad beast than a daily driver but still street legal too.

An F250 Super Duty is what I was thinking myself.

It gets good fuel economy (around 25mpg highway with no load) and it has plenty of power. But I also have whats known as the V1 6.4, Ford made changes to the programming mid production for some reason. This engine was only produced for 2 years then was it was replaced for the current production. I have no complaints though, I love it! But I've been eying up a new F350. My mom has the current production F250 and the interior is soo much more awesome. But I have a lifetime warranty on the power-train for as long as I own the vehicle, so there's almost no reason to get rid of it.

^^ Makes sense. I wasn't ever sure if they worked out the fireball issues with those or not. I worked for the company that produces oil pans for the new 6.7 Powerstroke. The oil pans are plastic, but they stand up to quite a hit. Also, the new motors are extremely quiet. I like the one that you have though. I would stay with it as long as it is working for you.

Yea. It already has 115,000 miles on it, but that's nothing for these trucks w/ a Diesel engine. Its funny cause its actually cheaper and more fuel efficient to tow my x with the SuperDuty then it is to drive the X.

It's an '03 f250 diesel 6MT with 4" SL and 35" nitto terra grapplers. That's our trailer for hauling toys, but we also have a 20' flatbed we used for our tractor and other stuff.
