I havent been here in a while, but Ive been lurking/reading...Pulled the trigger on a "new" (to me) truck. Found a good deal on a 2015 F-350 Dually with only 14k miles. I had a 2005 Excursion that was great for us but it was time to move on/up. It gave me 5 years and 100k miles of trouble free enjoyment. We are down to 2 kids left (and they are in their mid teens) from 6. So we dont need all the seats and the bed of a truck sure is handy. We also hope to move up to a 5-er in 3 or 4 years.Now to go change the signature...

Nice find and you saved a bundle over the new price

Congrats on the new to u truck, and to being down to just two kids!! I had a cousin with seven kids. He said "I don't understand it, I just hang my pants on the bed post, and she is pregnant again".Anyway, you'll enjoy that new truck, especially when getting a FW. I hope it has the FW prep pkg.Jerry

And I am not sure it has the 5th wheel prep package or not, I havent climbed underneath, and it has a plastic bedliner. What do I look for underneath?

You should see the extra cross brace from underneath, that has the puck system for attachment. It will also have the extra 7-pin plug on the bed side.Jerry

Are we to assume you haven't towed the camper with it, yet? If not, boy are you in for a nice surprise. :B

Thanks Jerry. I will look for those. Im not sure about the extra 7-pin connector in the bed, since the bedliner is there.
