Best Truck I Ever Owned! — Best truck I ever owned! 18 MPG, 0 to 60 in less than 7 seconds, chipped with Edge A2. Tows great with built in trailer brake controls, a major improvement over the 03 I had. Other improvements auto climate control wood grain dash and front end for smother ride. Would recommend it for anyone!

Super Dooty — Looks good; rides great. Can pull a LOT of weight, Fairly economical on the fuel - 15-19 highway and 12-15 in the city. When pulling a 7000# 25' fifth wheel, averaged 10-12 mpg vacationing in Co and NM.

Great Lifted Truck! — The truck has normal wear and tear but overall, it still looks great. The only reason I want to get rid of the truck is because I am going to have a kid. I want something different with a little smoother ride.

Great And Comfortable Truck For Towing Heavy Loads. — I really like the towing capacity of this truck for family's camper. It has so much power the truck doesn't even falter when towing such a heavy load. We also get better fuel ecomony than a gasoline truck for towing.

My Truck — Great acceleration, can be a bit bumpy to drive due to the heavy suspension. Looks good, low maintenance abd overall fun to drive. Gas can get expensive at around $100 to fill the tank and about 10-12 mpg city and 15-18 mpg highway.

Pure Power In A Luxury Truck — I loved my Lariat Power Stroke, man o man, I do miss my 6.0L Power Stroke. Stock the thing was a rocket, had the power to tow anything and with my sct chip she flew. Beat any vw gti, wrx or import I lined up with. I had no problems what so ever with the engine, however my vaccum system for the automatic locking hubs leaked so it didn't work, but the manual lock allowed me to go anywhere. This truck was very fun to drive and I enjoyed going any where in it. I was putting at least 100 miles a day driving it around after school. The seats were very comfortable, the dash is the setup is great except I didn't have a volt meter and when my alternator went it was hard to see that it was, so I ended up with two dead batteries. But the truck was just perfect, it jumped when I said jump and pulled what I wanted to pull. I did not find one thing that it couldn't pull. I see other stock 6.0L Power Strokes struggling on the highway with their horse trailers that are 20 feet, and I would blow by them with my 22 foot pontoon boat like nothing with the help of my chip. All they need is a chip, an exhaust and an intake, and the turbo will run cooler and the truck will be able to pul anything.

Ranch Truck — Good ranch truck. I like the 5.4 3v for off road use. Locking hubs are better for off road as well. Hauled 16,000 lbs well. 12 mpg. Built tough. I like how the silver paint has held up. It isn't a ranch truck unless it has a bench seat.
