Its time to say good bye!

I had to make a tough decision. Now that I'm tournament fishing alot more and traveling more, its time to sell the L. Not very happy about it, I really need a diesel if I'm going to make long trips pulling my bass boat. Anyone know of a low mileage 05 or newer F250 lariat for sale? trade? This is my 34th vehicle and only the second one I think I'm gonna miss. I just can't justify having two trucks in the driveway.

If you can afford a boat than you should be able to afford the gas to get it to the lake. Keep the lightning!

Keep it, you'll be the only Lightning at the bass tournaments making all the other fishermen jealous of the beauty and towing capabilities!

Shef it would be a shame to see us lose another Brother : o (
If you can Justify owning a Boat, (and the crazy money + upkeep they are)why not 1 Truck and 1 Lightning "CAUSE A LIGHTNING AINT NO DAM TRUCK"
It's Looks Speed and Comfort all packaged into one kick *** looking ....
(ok maybe I can see why some say truck here, but it's not a truck got dam it)


Ok Rant over


I got a better idea, instead of selling what you know you'll regret, and buying what you know you will lose at least (lets say 20-30K over the next 5 yrs)
wouldnt it be better to put a built motor and a Big Bad SC on the L and have more Tq than you'll ever need
Just a suggestion..... Either way Best of Luck to You

Well, "she's off like a prom dress". I'm sure I will still lurk here. Many "Thanks" to Rob, Suavy and everyone else that had any input on the times that I had a question or concern. I found an 06 F250 CC 4x4 Lariat with 15k miles that I could not pass on. I'm sure in a few years I'll be back in the Ford performance side some where and still have the F250. Just at a point in my life when saving for a true no work retirement at age 50 takes priority.
Thanks again
Dave
