I've been looking for a tow rig for awhile, either a Diesel RV or a Powerstroke truck. Something to pull a camper trailer/ haul trailer like Mark East pulls, or else a slide in camper with car trailer combo for pulling the Bronco. Our F150 pulls the Bronco around but can't handle a larger combination.
So the other day I saw this truck parked by a house, with a faded For Sale sign in the window. I stopped, visited the lady who told me it was her husband's truck. They were snowbirds and have another place in McAllen, Tx, but he died last March and now she's selling everything to move to South Texas to retire.
We looked it over, drove it, and everything seems solid. It's got 134,000 miles, 7.3 Powerstroke, automatic transmission, and has new tires. It's 20 years old, needs cleaned up badly but is in decent shape for it's age, and the price is right. We had one like it when we lived in Wyoming, and regretted selling it.
We made a deal with her, just need to go pay her and bring it home.
