Wow, I haven't read ALL the posts here but have read the last few. I have a '97 Ford F350 7.3 Diesel dually that has pulled a mobile home before, and also has pulled a semi out of a ditch. Personally, that is all the pulling power I would need, especially if it comes to hauling something lighter like a camper.
Just sayin'.... We are not pulling airplanes here lol. Also, I don't need a brand NEW truck, just one I can depend on.
Yeah yeah yeah my 7.3 gets 30 mpg can pull a freight train and is faster then a Ferrari. Don't you 7.3 guys get tired of spouting that crap. If they were sooooooo great why don't they make them anymore? I am not saying they are junk but they are not that great.
Nope. I never get tired of saying it. It obviously doesn't get 30 mpg lol, but it is a truck I can depend on and it only has about 116,000 miles on it. Still runs like a champ and will pretty much pull anything WE will ever need to pull.
I don't have to run out and buy new things all the time, we just take care of the ones we have so they are dependable in the future.
