So there i was and BAAAM I bought myself a new (to me) Powerstroke!

[Greggk]

it was killing me, not owning my 1999 F250 with the 7.3 Powerstroke anymore. I had to do it. I needed to have that diesel feeling again.

So I bought myself a 2008 F250 Lariat 4x4 crew cab short bed with a few mods done to it. It was owned by Jeff of Spartan Diesel

sweet rig. and thank you for your service.

Congrats man. Stay safe over in A-Stan so you can get back and drive that thing.

A diesel f250 is going to find her way into my drive by next spring. I've entertained LR4s, Land Cruisers and even the VW Touraeg (not for off road) but that F250 will do everything that I want.

Now just need to decide on 3> old or new.

What was the decision to go with used model?

Nice looking truck, it's a sleeper! Stay safe, I know when I was there last year I could not wait to come home and drive my D-Max.

 

[Greggk]

I didn't want the truck payment of a new truck. This truck put me in the middle of the price range I was looking at, so it was a no brainer for me.

 

[Greggk]

Btw thanks guys. I am soooo ready to get out of this country and back in the states!

 

[Greggk]

btw anyone happen to have a topper for one of these trucks that they dont want anymore?
