This isn't a bad older F350 diesel. Works well for towing our smaller 5th wheel with power and economy. Interior isn't as refined as the newer trucks, but it works for us.

One Tough Truck

This truck can do anything I've ever tried to do. No excuses, one tough and capable truck. 7.3 liter turbo diesel with the 4.10 gears can pull or haul just about anything.

This truck has been every thing I was looking for when I bought it . We pull our 5th wheel camper or our tractor loader. both put us in to the 19,000 lb area . Our 94 turbo diesel does the job and than some. I plan on keeping it till it's ten and than I'll look at what is on the market than .

I have ZERO complaints. 318k working miles when I had to swap out the motor. Lost three cylinders and she was still going. I have pushed this truck to the breaking point of its abilities. I will never sell it and while parts are getting harder and harder to find, and I suspect the steering column will be the next big job, nonetheless. Nobody builds them like this anymore. Nobody, not even Ford.
