Really? I've noticed that the Dodges tend to be cheaper..
Maybe it's just the particular options that you're looking for?

The pre 02 dodges were suicide door style crew cabs. Whereas the fords all have the complete "crew cab" with 4 independent doors.

BTW Rick, what kinda mileage do you get with that beast?

Why are Ford's so much cheaper than the other similarly equipped trucks?

Supply and demand. There are a ton of used PSD Super Dutys out there for sale.

Those Dodges also have much smaller back seats if that matters to you..
I honestly don't know what my mileasge is. I haven't checked it since new and have done quite a few mods since.....I know I don't get 20+MPG like some guys say they do.

Damn skippy.

I went to look at the truck this afternoon. It looks pretty sound. The interior is super clean. It runs and drives great.

Someone had some work done to it. Whomever had it before was using it for some HEAVY towing. It had a 5th wheel hitch and spare fuel cell in the bed. It looks to me like the injectors have already been replaced. Along with some minor stuff under the hood. Which was all put back to stock and looks mighty clean.

Anywho, If it's still there on monday, it will be mine. Muahahahahahaha.

Yup headphones and remote were there.

There was a small chunk taken out of the Drivers side dually flare. But they are fiberglass so you don't have to worry about rust. You can see it in the drivers side profile picture on the site.
