My F-150 just didn't have the guts to pull my travel trailer the way I wanted. I went on a quest to find the nicest old style 250 or 350 I could find. Last week it finally paid off. I found a 1993 F-250 with 35,000 miles on it. It is just as good looking as a new one. The owner had lost his driving privlidges due to age and had just kept it in a garage. It has never sat outside over night. It's a 351W with the complete towing package and front and back hitches. The PO put new tires on it because he said the originals had dry rot. I started changing all the fluids today and will probably finish Monday.

Here is my new truck. A 2007 Dodge Mega cab with a 5.9 Cummins.

Lets start with some interior shots:

And then there's the beauty shot.

Nights slept...don't know, but it's never enough.

A baby seat AND a soccer ball? I'm surprised you have time to go camping. Nice truck.

Thanks, It is a huge upgrade from my previous truck a '94 GMC Sierra 1500. I liked my GMC and I never thought I'd buy Dodge but after doing my research I felt that the big three all make really nice diesels, and this is one that I knew the history on and it only had 85,000 kilometers on it. And it's immaculate.
