Done did it. At the house and the shop. Parked right beside the other two. Have you forgotten who you're talking too???Do you even have room to turn it around?
THAT is what a truck should look like!New to me 97 F350 cab and chassis. 7.3 5 speed 4x4. Completely stock when I got it. I have done a Tymar style intake and 4" stainless steel turbo back exhaust. Drug the Jeep nicely to Cape Hatteras and back last week.

Sold my 2008 F250 a few weeks ago. Been going back and forth between buying a cheapish truck for around $10k (05-07 6.0 Ford) or a newer truck in the $20-25k range (2011+ 6.7 Ford or 2010+ 6.7 Ram). Was ready to drive to south Florida for one (sold within 3 hours of posting), and Nebraska and Kentucky for a couple others, but just couldn't quite pull the trigger. Then last thursday, my Craigslist search alert emailed me about one in Iron Station, NC, which is 10 minutes from my house. Posted at 12:30, I called them at 1:30, and we had a deal by 2:45pm. I've already had a trailer behind it, but didn't get any pictures because it was after dark. Pulls awesome. Not as strong as my tuned 6.4, but the gearing in the 6 speed transmission is much better than the 5 speed in the older trucks. I look forward to inviting you all to my 65th birthday party, and the AARP has already sent me some membership cards.

No joke. I really wanted a 2014+ Ram 2500 with the air suspension and Ramboxes, but I need a truck I'm not afraid to beat up, so I gotta wait til they come down to everyman prices. I've got something else in mind for this F250. You know I'll post pics if/when it happens.Now the question is.... when are you buying another bed and starting the RAMbox conversion? You know youre itching to.
I figured no need to rush because I've been out of town since about 12hrs after I bought the truck. Of course being gone and not getting to play with my new toy is driving me crazy! But brown santa has possession of a tuner and some flanged SS pipe with my name on it.Time to get that jewel some tunes! If I'm not mistaken, it's sorta pricey to tune the 6.7s though...

Installed a Bedslide. Now I can keep all my crap (up to 1500lbs of it anyway) dry and locked and easily accessible. Even my short self can reach stuff that was at the front of the bed without climbing in!
It solves the problem I didn't have. Toolbox takes up too much bed space. Grandpa cap prevents toolbox and bed access, but is lockable and dry. Bedslide restores access. Rambox solves all of these problems (and would even work well with a bedslide!)That's sad. And awesome. Both at the same time.
I will say that I only dislike a few things about our camper shell. The fact that everything has to come and go out the back of the truck is one of them. It all ends up in a huge pile on the tailgate.
There's not a cap that allows the use of the rambox, though. Not sure how the bed slide would last in the elements.It solves the problem I didn't have. Toolbox takes up too much bed space.

Contractor windows ftw. I haven't owned a top without them.That's sad. And awesome. Both at the same time.

But I don't need a cap, I just need a place to store tools/chainsaws/crap locked and out of the elements. I'd prefer the open bed. Don't really want people thinking @GONOVRIT and I are in the same retirement home.There's not a cap that allows the use of the rambox, though.
