It is a beautiful truck and is being offered at a good price. (I have owned 2 before and my wife is still whines about me selling the last one. In fact she would not object if I bought this one.) I recommend that if you buy it you remove the F-350 badges before you take it home and that you replace them with F-250 badges. The trucks are the same vehicle except that the F-350 has one additional leaf spring and F-250's are specifically allowed since they are only a 3/4 ton vehicle. If you buy it as a F-350, all it would take is one anonymous complaint from a neighborhood busybody and your day would be ruined to learn that you are not allowed to keep it at your home. God bless...and stay healthy!
Interesting post. Reminds me of my fishing boat up north. Many of the lakes and ponds have a 10 HP limit on fishing boats. I bought a used boat that came with a 15 HP 2 stroke outboard. The cover over the engine has very real looking graphics on it that says it’s a 9.9 HP Mercury. In many years of fishing I have never been questioned.
