I am a proud new owner of a 2000 Ford f150 xlt triton v8. it only has 50,000 mi on it. My dad had a 1990 f250 that he bought new, and he used it of and on as his work truck until a few years ago. That truck lasted longer than 3 other trucks he owned...a 93 Chevy Silverado, A 96 Dodge(he got used), and a 2006 Toyota Tundra. he recently traded in his tundra for a '12 f150. He his in the forestry business, so he pushed that old Ford quite a bit. since i've seen how f-series trucks can last i'm excited about the longevity of my "new" truck. This forum has allowed me to know what to look out for, and what to look forward to!

 

here's some pics of my new truck...
