I bought a new truck! (Updated--now with pics!!)
Well, it's new to me anyway!
Last weekend I brought home a '96 Ford E-350 Van cutaway. In it's first life, it was an ambulance...now it's an extended cab truck with a flatbed! Yeah, I know, sounds kind of silly, but it will make the perfect platform for a Reading Enclosed utility body that I just bought. It will be my new work truck. Yeah, yeah, it's a Ford, I know! I've always been a GM guy all my life, but I couldn't pass this deal up! Because here's the best part: it's powered by the 7.3L Powerstroke diesel, and I only paid $5300 for the thing! The dealer wanted to get rid of it bad, so I got a great deal. It looks good too, nice paint, excellent interior with captains chairs. It's got the E40D auto tranny, and a limited slip dually rear axle. A/c, power windows/locks....it's just a really nice rig with only 137,000 miles. I'll post some pics of it soon! Now I can keep the '81 off the road a little more and finally get a chance to get back to work on it! Later ya'll! Casey
