I'm actually selling my '95 F350 tomorrow as I replaced it with a 2013 Super Duty. There is a simplicity with the '95 that I appreciate but I've had my days of wrenching and so long as I can afford to, I'd rather drive newer rigs.


I loved my '95 F-350. Didn't like the fuel mileage though. Good luck with your push button newer 4x4's and everything is computer controlled...


I do kinda wish I had a manual transfer case but do like having auto hubs and still the option of manual override. The new truck is gas like the old one and tows the camper much better than the old truck did and gets 16 on the highway (the old 460 got 10).
