    Scottie is all these new toys coming from the Trump Train impact on the oil drilling?

    Indeed, under Obummer, Scottie drove around in a rickshaw.  Truth be told it was the only thing he could afford.  Obummer just bled him dry.  The three units he acquired under Obummer were all gifts from people who felt sorry for him.

    I’ve been looking at these. I love the new 250s, but the cabs aren’t as big as they use to be.

    how much did that wagon set you back?

    The truck was shipped from Ohio to Biloxi. I found it on the internet for 49,000. With tax it was just shy of 52,000. Not bad for a 4 door, 4 wheel drive with the diesel. It’s certainly not tricked out like a King Ranch. But I wasn’t going to give 82,000 for a truck that I drive in rough and muddy conditions. 
    Overall I’m very happy with it.

    The cab on this one is enormous. There is actually more room in the back seats than there is in the front.

    Nice looking truck SGH.  Enjoy the new ride.

    How many times a week do you have to polish something that purdy?

    Scottie only polishes things that he can hold with one hand.

    That’s a nice truck! Are you going to equip it?

    It has some serious headlights on it for sure. The pic don’t do them justice. 

    I have been riding around blinding the crap out of people for the fun of it.

    The only people making money in the Obummer economy were Barack and Michelle. Oh yeah, the Clinton Global Initiative did pretty well too.

    This is what the elites want you to believe, so that you won’t notice or complain when their taxes have been cut a lot more than yours.

    49k .... If I could get that truck for 49K, I would all day every day.  Then sell it for 20k profit and do it again ;)

    I came out really good on this truck if it’s not a lemon. The dealer up there put 18 inch chrome rims and bigger tires on this one that came off of a King Ranch. They also sent the factory running boards that came off of the same King Ranch with this truck. 
    The XLT’s come stock with 17 inch steel wheels and no running boards. With that said, I got almost 5 thousand dollars of extras for free. Also if you blow the pics up you can see that this XLT has the fender well covers on it. That don’t come  standard on a XLT either. 
    All in all I’m very well pleased. Got a lot of extra for nothing. All of the above mentioned is why I bought this particular Ford F-250 instead of the Chevy equivalent. I would of had to spend about 8,000 more for the Chevy set up like this one.

       Wow.  Seriously gorgeous.  Congrats Scottie! A new ride gets the endorphins kicking like nothing else. Spectacular that you scored an awesome deal on it - it looks fresh off the assembly line!
