The Way I Got It

1988 Ford F-350 Dually 7.3 Diesel Crew Cab

Ok.......so this guy bought a new 2009 Dually to pull his horses and didn't need this one anymore. His daughter can't drive a stick and he said it was a little too big for her first Vehicle.

His daughter saw my Mountaineer on craigslist for $5,000.00 or best offer(would've take $3,500.00 with the rims), so he called me, then the two of them came over in this dually.  The first thing he said was, what the least you'll take for your mountaineer?   I replied make me an offer, MONEY TALKS & BULL, WELL YOU KNOW THE REST!

He said, you like that dually?   Then he said its a 7.3 diesel, 5 speed, well maintained and it'll pull the devil outta hell,  I said its alright (on the inside I was saying.......I love dually's, I need this dually), thinking he wanted a even trade (which I was ok with), Then he said, will you take my dually, $1,500.00 cash and you can have your fancy wheels (with his strong country accent).......Thinking he's bullshitting I replied, like I said, MONEY TALKS & BULL, yeah yeah yeah, YOU KNOW THE REST!   To my suprise, he pulled out $1,500.00 and his ARKANSAS title (pictured below), and said go get your title, stock tires, keys, spare keys, we gone take'm round the block  and  if  all  goes well   i-moe get your tires off (YEP, HE EVEN CHANGED THE TIRES).......DAMN, TODAY WAS A GOOD DAY!!!

I JUST HAD TO SHARE THAT STORY WITH YALL CAR DOMAIN, LET ME KNOW WHAT YA THINK!

Gonna replace that tailgate with a smooth tailgate

Gonna replace the front & rear bumper with an almost brand new front & rear bumper on my F-250 parts truck 

Also got a excellent hood on my F-250 to replace this one

My donor Truck - 1990 Ford F-250 - 460 V8 Extended Cab

The only thing wrong machanically is, it need some trans work, I still drive it thou, Its just that when it gets hot I have to shift the gears manually

The only major thing wrong with the body is the tailgate

That was a real good deal. sorry I havent gotton back to you and thanks for checking out my rig. I just turned 60,000 miles on my dually f-450 and the 7.3 l with auto trans has no trouble pulling the 18,000 lb 5th wheel through the mountains or even doing 80 mph down the interstate,hell,I pass others doing 70 with the 5th whell behind me and they just stare in awe. way cool and drives really smooth with the air bags and haveing a super chip really helps with the power. I will try to post some pics of the inside and with the slides out. Take care and drive safe
