My wife and I are looking to buy a Truck for my son's 16th birthday,if anyone know's or see's one please let us know.Looking for 2003 or newer with crew cab..:rockon:
I have an 08 f250 6.8 powerstroke that left me on the side of the road lastnight. Its at the dealer getting some warranty work done if you want to see it
My 04 duramax never left me out to dry, now someone tell me why I sold it?:helpsmilie:
Wow ! My parents bought my brother and I a '71 Maverick that we had to share - and we were grateful as hell. $400 for the car, and we proceeded to drop a $250 stereo in it. Had a lot of fun in that car
I was looking at diesel Excursions the other day (just for the hell of it) and prices seemed better on cars.com than on Craigslist.

I want to unload my 5.4L F-150 and trade up to a diesel Excursion. I put <1000 miles per year on it - all trailering or on the beach, so fuel isn't a big concern. My wife wants a Lexus or a Volvo SUV... neither one is gonna happen.
A new truck and a new driver - expensive combo .
Might be best to start him out with an older truck.Less expensive plus if it gets beat up - you are not out too much.
Our daughter tore up my wife's mini van - in the driveway.She misjudged the mirror and caught the side of the house .Just a rookie driver mistake - lucky the van is 9 years old.
If you are set on a new onne - most dealerships have plenty of trucks.
haha, i got a used truck when i turned 16. went fishing in my yak and came back a few hours later to find the fire department ripping the front end open/off because it was on fire!!! worst day ever. been without one for a few years now
He has been working the summer's since he was 11 year's old mowing grass, scraping metal and mateing on a boat and has saved up over $9000.00 .We told him we would match what ever he gives toward's it and he can may us back monthly for our part.Thank's for all the input ,we will be making some call's today.
I saw an F-350 King Ranch diesel on the Barn Sale section of the classifieds on the Bass Barn (a NJ/DE rock site). It looked pretty cherry. I think the guy was asking 25k.
Eminent Brother,
I've had 3 diesel trucks (including my current 7.3 PS Lemmonmobile) and I would advise you to go with a multi-port fuel injected gas engine instead. I've had to live through 4 first time drivers with a fifth on the way. I learned from experience that for first timers Big is Bad and Small is not as bad. What ever you get, keep in mind it will be in an accident soon enough. It's just unavoidable with kids. So for a first time driver I'd go smaller then a full size PU. A Toyota Tacoma or Nissan Frontier would be the most bullet-proof of the smaller PU's.
Your right ,rather have a Chevy but I could not beat the price plus I know the owner who had it.
