Most low-end torque vehicle up ever owned

The 6.4 L TwinTurbo power stroke diesel is a very reliable engine when you know how to maintain them properly. Overall performance of the vehicle is very good.

Love this truck

Ford F250 Lariat 6.4 turbo diesel ready for work or play, 174,000 miles young. this 2008 F250 super duty is sparkling inside and out. No signs or wear on any of the leather, power everything! this truck was NOT used for towing or work just commuting and is well maintained with regular oil changes and preventive maintenance. 2 tone Bronze and gold exterior, running lights on roof and sunroof this truck will give you many many years of great driving, work or fun. THIS TRUCK IS WELL LOVED AND TAKEN CARE OF!

Great hauler

Rides very nice. Good fuel economy. Great room inside crew cad and 8 foot bed. 4WD is excellent, limited slip rear end, can go anywhere.

Sharp F-250

Just a great looking truck. Runs and drives great. Great to tow with. Over all style is better then you expect in a truck.

Great truck.

As always with a used vehicle I have found a few minor problems but other than that the truck is very nice. Plenty of options even though it's not top of the line.

6.8 V-10 Is The Best

I ordered this truck the way I wanted it. The only thing I didn't order and wish I had, was the rear camera. I currently have over 143,000 miles on this truck and this V-10 has been flawless. I have changed plugs twice, once at 90k and again at 140k. I would recommend changing plugs every 50k. This truck has never been in the shop except for oil changes. I have owned diesels before but this V-10 is the best of the bunch. Mileage is lower than diesel engines, but when you include the increased cost of the diesel engine, cost of maintenance and cost of fuel, theis gas engine is a winner, hands down. These V-10's are tough to find now, but are worth the effort to find. They are very reliable. The Torqueshift tranny is awesome. I wouldn't change a thing on this truck.

Very pleased

I purchased this 2008 F250 Lariat Super Duty March 2014, with 65000 on it. It is my first diesel. My reason for this type of pick up is towing a 5th wheel here in the mountains of Colorado. The fuel mileage is about what you might expect from a powerful engine and a truck that weighs about 8000 lbs., about 11 to 14 mpg in the city and 18 to 23 mpg on the road. However, I didn't buy this for good mileage. I needed a truck that would tow a 11000 lb. 5th wheel plus all my gear up the passes in Colorado, and this truck does it with ease, safety and comfort. If you are in the market for a truck like this, I say, take your time. List everything you can think of that you would want in a heavy duty hauler. Try a few brands out. I don't believe there is really a "perfect" truck, but this Ford F250 Super Duty comes very close. That being said, the only disappointment I have is that it doesn't fit in my garage.
