Goodbye to a good friend

Post by Blackdog on Thu Dec 20, 2007 11:38 pm

2002 F250 4wd, 7.3, 6spd. Newest truck I've ever owned in my life bought it a few months ago when the Toyota decided it didn't want to do DD duty anymore. Don't have a trailer yet, but hopefully I will soon.



I love this thing. Its got power door locks, windows, cruise control, a/c!!, 6 cd changer, manual locking hubs, manual 4wd shifter, etc.

Never got to tow the 3.0 Killer, and never will :(










Long story short, had a snowstorm last weekend, was heading home in the slow lane, rear of the truck spun to the pass side, as the truck slid to the drivers side, wound up going off the road into the center divide facing the wrong way. Truck wound up on its roof, thankfully no one was hurt.

RIP 3.0 killer hauler
