Took a 2011 F350 Lariat for a test ride today. It came stock with 20" rims and Michelin Load E radials, Heated and cooled seats, Some weird feature for going down hills with trailer. You can't even tell your driving a diesel truck there so quiet and very responsive. One thing that was different was the signal switch, when you engage it is automatically goes back to center. Anyways waiting for a price on the Harley Davidson package and I think I may wait untill the second build is coming. I liked the features on the dash, it gives you alot of information on the dash on what the truck is doing.

Whatever happened with the 2008?

Never did keep up with the probs or so;utions you had...
Its fine, 142000 km's I like to get rid of them before I hit 155000 km so theres some warranty left. I need some tires soon so I will get some, then soon get a new one. The new fords have a tank for fuel and a tank for urea the fuel door is alot bigger, thats different. I was also getting 16.7 mpg on the test ride that truck had 121 miles on it

Good choice! test drove one 2 months ago and was blown away how quiet they are from my brothers 2003 f-350, and how nice they ride. Spring isn't coming fast enough to get mine

You can get a 2008 Porsche Cayman SX51 for that, or how about one of these babies...

Aston Martin Vantage

I know, I know....not a truck but I could see myself driving a mid 80's Ford and still have one of these in the garage.

Just Sayin' (Bogger 2010).

Better be a damn nice truck for that coin!!
