Finally replaced my old tow pig. The red 2004 F250 XLT 6.0L diesel 4x4 crew cab.
She did a good job, but didn't have a lot of the modern tech and creature comforts I wanted.

Last year we did our longest trip ever - from Houston to Denver. That's when I made up my mind we had to get a new truck.
Something more comfortable and modern, and something that the wife can hopefully drive (towing) to help on the long trips.

So a few weeks ago we bought a new 2015 F250 Platinum FX4 crew cab 4x4 with the 6.7L diesel and lots of bells and whistles and buttons and stuff! LOL!!

Taking it on it's first trip Wednesday....

never been inside and we have slept in it 2579 nights.

The trick is to be able to have the rv at home and easier to care for it before it gets real dirty. The rv's you guys are showing look great so keep it up and have fun.

Made the 400 mile round trip maiden voyage without any problems.

I didn't push it too hard since I only had 967 miles on the truck when we left home....

but yes... the 6.7 does have some power! [emoticon]
