    Open the hood of every diesel powered Ford or Dodge pickup since 2006 and you will see me looking back at you in one form or another.

    You don't always have to own something to know about things. :)

    If it is going to be used for what a 250 is actually designed for, there is a better option out there. If it's going to be a street queen, you could put a 4 banger in it with the proper gears and drive it up and down the road.

    I'm about to :jester:

    I had one as a company truck. It never had any trouble pulling what ever we needed. But no I haven't actually "owned" one. If someone has here and would like to speak on it please do.
