"Best pickup I have ever owned!"

Bought this F350 Crewcab new, in 1996, and have made several trips across the country in it (California to New York and back), many times pulling a horse trailer or car hauler. Never had any problems on the road. With regular maintenance (oil & filter changes, etc...) it has been the most dependable pickup ever! With 330,000 miles, it still runs great! The only thing it really needs is a new tailgate. Ha!

Critical Review

"This is a Ex- U-Haul truck."

This is a flat bed truck. Has a gray outside paint job. It runs decently. It was going to be a truck I was going to turn into a mini-rig. But fiancés have change. This can be seen on Craig's list NH for 2400.00. The pictures are there to be looked ta.

The best truck I ever owned. Bought 3 new, one was totaled, one has over 500k miles on it and still going good, the other, my personal truck has had to drag my 2015 truck off the road 3 times. The only problems I ever had was, 2 camshaft positioning things, changed the glow plug wirers and valve cover gaskets, and brakes, power steering lines twice, belts, idler pulleys, and the vacuum pump 4 times. The truck runs like a charm. I did at 350K install a tuner and now it has just as much power as the 2015. Cost to run is cheap compared to my 2015 which has cost me over 2k every 10k miles it has traveled.
