Ralph, I'm honored. It's my truck. I might let you tool it around when we meet up. If you are short, you might have a hard time getting in, sits pretty high. The OBS 350 sat up to begin with and I took it up an additional 6". Now that I'm older I wish I hadn't but too late to worry about that. My wife needs a step stool to get in...lol
She averages 21 mpg with the camper in the bed and no DEF or emissions junk either. Great truck, glad I bought it in 1997
LOL!! this kinda **** cracks me up. Let see, 6" lift, probably 35" tires, with a camper....and yup 21 MPG out of a 97 CCLB 4x4.
Who are you trying to kid here? Don't you realize most of the people on these forums have owned a truck like yours at some point and have moved on?
I had a 97 extra cab 4x4 F250 long bed. It was a great truck for it's time. But 21 MPG with a camper...and a lift....and bigger tires? Do you grow weed on that farm of yours??
I also had a 2003 F350 CCLB 7.3 4x4 which was leaps and bounds better than the 97....it was lifted, on 35"'s and got no where near 21 mpg when hauling a camper....or empty for that matter!
Actually I run razor tires and inflate them to 80 psi. Not into fat tires. 21 highway at 60-65, I've calculated it many times.
Whatever blows your dress up I guess.:R
