Review
4 wheel drive bought new and now has some 66,000 miles. Used to haul various trailers and camper. Has duals for camper and when on it rides like a car - off it is trucky. Taken many long trips (Alaska, Canada, etc.)with camper and very comfortable to drive and ride. Diesel is powerful with 12 mpg when loaded. Five speed manual transmission has good gear ratio. Ordered with high speed rear end which makes it a great highway traveler. No problems except a clutch pressure plate spring broke - cost about $800 to replace everything. Bought as a chassis cab and made a custom box for camper use. With truck rated at 13,000 lbs., never gets overloaded. It is a "keeper"

I said I'd never own a Ford
product...but here I am, owning a Ford
F350 dually with a powerstroke diesel
to tow equipment and hay.
This is the finest truck I've driven,
and I've driven a lot of them. A Dodge
3500 with a Cummins diesel was nice,
but it didn't have the power the Ford
does. The quality of workmanship is
much better on the Ford than the Dodge,
nor did I care for the workmanship on
the Chevrolet.
Fuel mileage so far on the diesel is
around 14 combined city/highway
driving. I would expect around 10 mpg
or so when towing around 8,000 lbs.

I'm very pleased with my F350 Dually, it is
actually way more truck than I need. Pulls
trailers lke there's nothing behind it. MPG
can be scay on hilly hauls - as low as 10, but
average 15 mpg. Highest was 19 mpg,
lowest 9 mpg. ABS light comes & goes -
dealer cks it and resets. Replaced clutch
assembly on 5-spd for a grand, but oil,
brakes, tires are the only tings it has
needed. Fantastic truck!

I bought this truck new and have been
hauling Harley-Davidson's with a 20
foot enclosed trailer. The 6.8L V10 4X4
will pull anything I put behind it with
ease at any speed. The leather interior
is plush and very easy on a biker's
rear. This F350 hardly knows when it is
going uphill. This black truck looks
great with my black trailer in tow. I
can't think of a thing I would change,
and it's Ford trucks for life!

Although I have only had this vehicle for 5 days, I drove it from Colorado to
California. It cruises at hiway speeds with no sweat. It sits very high and is
easy to drive. The interior is roomy and comfortable. I traded in my 1999
F-250 XLT 4x4 truck and I really liked it also. I ran a carfax vehicle report on
it and everything is clean. It is a luxury type vehicle in a truck body, yet
tough enough for any hauling task or off road adventure.
