Keeping it in the family-first photo
So, I've been on this forum for what seems like forever, and I've never posted a picture. My dad recently decided he had a bit of money burning a hole in his pocket, so he ordered a new 2019 Ford F35...

My dad has a 2000 7.3 he bought new, albeit with an automatic transmission. It hasn't been perfect but it's been pretty close to it which is impressive given how old it is. It's still a nice truck, just a bit crude feeling and noisy compared to the newer diesels. The biggest thing I don't like about it is probably the turning radius with those front leafs - it's worse than my Ram even though my Ram is longer (his is an extended cab short box).
The turn radius on this extended cab long box is pretty horrendous, although not quite as bad as the 1994 F250 I once owned. My last truck was a 2005 Chevy 2500HD 2WD regular cab, and it had an unbelievably tight turn radius. I could back a trailer just about anywhere I wanted. This truck, well, it will take a little getting used to! ;)
