Here is our trusty 13 year old rattle trap. Possibly one of the first 50 superduties ever built.

Treated us very well all these years.

How do you mean "superduties"? Didn't the superduty name first show up in 1988?

Yes, yes they did make them back then.

But, you, me, and a few others might and I mean might, know that.

Most people know when you say Superduty, it is 99+ model of the F250-350.

It moved it ok, but stopping was a huge issue. I had the trailer brakes setup pretty high, but the truck would still overheat the brakes with minimal usage on longer hills. The Ford is night and day over the Chevy in both power and braking.

I didn't even let my family ride with me on the last weekend trip we took with the Chevy. I made my wife drive the kids in the Escalade. We had a few passes to go over, so I wanted to play it safe.

Got this a couple of weeks ago, it's an F-350 Lariat with the 6.7L diesel. Had a Line-x bed liner done yesterday, and a light tint on the front side windows. First tow may be this weekend. So far I have to say it's a well thought out, great vehicle. DW sure likes it (not sure if you can see her smiling face in this pic).
