Funny thing is I just ordered F350 badges for my 250. Putting im my biller emblem grilles I found out the snap in and out in about 10seconds.

In Michigan we can carry the loaded pistols and rifles too in our rides!. Concealed carry is a nice privelege for the law abiding American citizen - Unfortunately, goofy Cali laws and politics don't allow that!!


The Prius thing...yee gads!!! It can't tow 15k lbs (or anything for that matter)
The Prius remark was a joke. Since he is from Cali, I joked that he should do the Cali thing...Go green. I am well aware of the lack of towing capabilities of a Prius.

My HOA has the same rules...with my Camper, we get 2 hours in the street to load or unload, and up to 5 hours in the driveay to clean. 50.00 fine for each hour after that. and I live in the hood.

I also garage my F250 SB but I could get a LB in the garage. Then again, that's just how I roll.

I know you spend way over 5 hours cleaning your 250 KR...how much have you paid in fines over the past year?

Physically the only difference between a 3/4 and one ton truck is a 2" vs 4" lift block in the rear. Same axles (with exception to duallys), springs, frames, ext...

Really the 250 is only around to list lower GVWR numbers on the sticker for insurance reasons if you don't need the big numbers.

Cookie cutter houses, 100x200 lots, homeowner associations, deed restrictions, vinyl siding and nosey neighbors. Is it worth it?

For me.....NO.
For some.....YES.

For me....YES/NO
