I hope this is the right place to post this...
Several months ago, I did the full-size mod and traded the Ranger.
I picked up (ordered actually) a new '09 F250. I really wanted the manual transmission and manual transfer case combo, but with a few more amenities than an XL model provided. It's a really fun truck, and I get ridiculed all the time for going with the V8 But it tows our cattle trailer and boat well on the flatlands of Texas. Here's some pics of it if you havent seen them already.
Order Sheets
The weight ticket as it came off the lot. Nothing it it at all. Not even the owners manual!
I'm going to get it weighed again to see how much weight it gained after a toolbox, running boards, new tires, and all the other "stuff" that accumulates in a vehicle.
The day I bought it.
Real manual locking hubs instead of Auto/Lock ESOF ones
ESOF vs MSOS
The shifters for the ZF6 transmission and the NVG 271 transfer case.
Transfer Case Shot
Ford 10.5" Rear Axle (4.10LS)
Dana 60 Front Axle (4.10)
Here's the dash layout at night (in engineering mode to show various lights)
Daytime shot
I swapped the middle "20" section from the 40|20|40 split bench for the nicer center console.
And actually take this behemoth out in the pasture from time to time. No, this is not a rig for any kind of tight trail, but it is fun to find some sand and mud around dried up ponds.
Thanks for looking.
