Vehicle Specs

2000 F250 Psd

While i was in Iraq my wife and I bought this off of Ebay back in August and had it shipped to our house from TX. XLT, auto, 4x4, PSD, 91000 miles. The last owner put on some chrome nerf bars and chrome bed rail things.

I put a set of Mastercraft Courser C/T 285's on it, fog lights in the factory location, cab lights and the tool box. Everything else was on it. So what do you think??

Thanks guys. And thanks Kid, it feels good to be home!

Here is a picture of the tires. These things have sweet tread for a non mud tire. I'm anxious to see how they grip.

I pulled my baby down to Tellico last weekend. Truck pulled awesome. I only got about 10 MPG, but i wasn't easy on the fuel at all. I ran about 75 90% of the time, so that's about right for that speed with that weight.





I do have a little report on my Mastercraft Courser C/T tires. They do awesome on all terrains. I've had them in the mud pulling my car trailer loaded down with 21 sections of 12-14" Oak cut in 4 ft lengths and they did awesome. I'll buy these tires again!

I got the fuel hog 7.3. 6.0 didn't come out till 03 i believe.

I do have a little bit of an up date. I got a flowmaster exhaust system for it too. It's only a 3.5" which is stock size, but it sounds amazing on a diesel.
