When you're looking for a truck that will get the job done and still be able to go through a drive-thru, you look no further than the legendary Ford F250 Super Duty. This particular '08 Super Duty is a King Ranch edition so it is loaded up with all the features and options you want including power windows/locks/mirrors, tilt/cruise, ICE COLD dual zone automatic climate control, and more plus it has been optioned with the factory AM/FM Stereo 6CD NAVIGATION system. It also has a real 4wd system with 3.73 limited slip differentials so you can really get it done off the road or on!

The 6.4 Powerstroke diesel runs PERFECT as well it should with only 199k miles plus it has NO BLOWBY. These 6.4s are probably the toughest design out there and can take the extra power with no reliability issues! Best of all this truck has already been DPF deleted & tuned. What does that do for you? The 6.4 cleans it's DPF (soot filter) by dumping extra fuel into the engine to clean out the filter. This isn't good for the engine plus it kills the fuel economy. You pick up 5-7mpg right of the bat plus you can leave the power stock or pump up the already-strong 350hp to as much as 650!!!

These 6.4s are probably the toughest design out there and can take the extra power with no reliability issues and without the engine dumping all that extra fuel down the exhaust you can easily pull 20-22mpg if you can manage to keep your foot off the throttle! If you went to have this done tomorrow you would easily spend several thousand dollars!The original owner spent a ton of money optioning out this truck to give it the looks and capability it needs with such features as 20" alloy wheels, sliding rear window, bedliner, Tow Command, and more! It is equipped with HEATED power leather seats plus the bed has an expensive turnover ball setup. Even if you don't need it, it only adds value down the road. It also has the power folding/telescoping tow mirrors as well.It's a Southern truck that has ABSOLUTELY NO RUST WHATSOEVER. There's an automatic dimming rearview mirror as well as rear seats that fold up to give you flat floor carrying ability. You will even find the spare still under the bed. It also has a 3" or so Rough Country front leveling kit which, along with the 35" tires (which are LIKE NEW) give it the proper stance.

Both front seats have no rips or tears either. They hardly even show any wear. Best of all, it's powered by the 6.4 POWERSTROKE DIESEL and not the 6.0 that everyone is scared of (even though we aren't). These 6.4s are probably the toughest design out there and can take lots of extra power with no reliability issues.

Don't let the 199k miles worry you, it's barely broken-in! We've had similar trucks with over 600k on the original engine. It starts right up hot or cold and runs great the whole time. Doesn't use any coolant or smoke either. It's clearly spent most of its time on the highway. Please note we drive this truck often use it on trips so the mileage may accumulate before the end of the listing.

We wouldn't hesitate to get in this truck and drive it ANYWHERE. Our mechanic has gone over everything to make sure it works properly. It has also had the radiator TSB performed so no worries there either. Feel free to fly in and drive it home to where ever home may be. We'll be glad to pick you up at the airport at no extra charge or we'll find you a shipper to have it transported. Best of all, we got a great buy on it that we're passing along to you in the form of a LOW RESERVE so it should to sell even if the final bid is THOUSANDS BELOW the book value of nearly $26,000!!!

2009 Ford F-250 Super Duty Road Test

(basically the same as our '08)

Introduction

A 1500-series pickup truck is usually more than adequate for the average person's needs. These trucks (traditionally known as the "half-ton") will easily handle hauling goods from the home improvement store, moving a kid to college and hitching up recreational stuff like motorcycles. For these folks' purposes, employing a heavy-duty pickup would be akin to using a hammer to set thumbtacks into the kitchen's corkboard.

But equestrians, owners of big boats and those who pull trailers larger than their time-share condos do need a hammer -- a big one. And for them, the 2009 Ford F-250 Super Duty makes perfect sense. The available PowerStroke turbodiesel engine makes serious pulling power -- we're talking 650 pound-feet of torque -- which allows the F-250 Super Duty to tow up to 12,500 pounds when properly equipped.

With its impressive work capacity, well-rounded ride and handling qualities and large array of convenience and luxury features, the 2009 Ford F-250 Super Duty is bound to offer big-truck consumers the right tool for the most demanding jobs.

Body Styles, Trim Levels, and Options

The 2009 Ford F-250 Super Duty pickup comes in regular cab, SuperCab (extended cab) and crew cab body styles. The SuperCab has a pair of small rear-opening rear doors, while the crew cab has four conventional full-size doors. SuperCabs and crew cabs are available with a short (6.75-foot) or long (8-foot) bed; regular cabs are long bed only.

Four trim levels are offered: base XL, midlevel XLT, off-road-oriented FX4 (4WD only) and luxurious Lariat. Regular cabs are available only in XL and XLT forms.

The XL is meant for those who just need a basic work truck. It comes standard with air-conditioning, plain vinyl upholstery, an AM/FM radio, 17-inch wheels and manual trailer-tow mirrors. The XLT adds chrome wheels, keyless entry, power and heated trailer tow mirrors, an integrated trailer brake controller, privacy glass, cloth upholstery, an auxiliary audio jack, a 40/20/40 front bench, a CD player, cruise control and full power accessories.

The FX4 provides upgraded off-road hardware including skid plates, heavy-duty shock absorbers, a limited-slip rear axle and a manual-shift transfer case. It also adds front bucket seats, a power driver seat, power telescoping and folding mirrors and satellite radio. High-line Lariats come with luxuries like 18-inch alloy wheels, running boards, a power-sliding rear window, leather upholstery, dual power and heated front seats (power driver seat only on regular cab), the Sync multimedia voice-control system and dual-zone automatic climate control. Much of the Lariat's extra equipment can be added to the FX4 via optional packages.

Option highlights (depending on trim level) include reverse park assist, a rearview-mirror-mounted back-up camera display, a sunroof, a navigation system and a rear-seat entertainment system. In addition, there are several packages to further fine-tune the F-250 Super Duty to one's needs. The XLT sport package includes color-matched bumpers and grille, foglamps, chrome step bars and privacy glass. The new Cabela's package is inspired by the largest outfitter for outdoor enthusiasts and features unique two-tone color and interior trim schemes. The King Ranch package similarly provides two-tone paint but goes further uptown with 20-inch alloy wheels, fancy leather seating and trim inspired by a western saddle, and a premium audio system. There's also the Harley-Davidson package with a similar level of interior and exterior upgrades.

Highly recommended for those who tow is the TowCommand option, which seamlessly integrates the control of the trailer brakes with those on the truck. Optional on all F-250 Super Duty trims is a clever flip-down tailgate step that hides within the tailgate when stowed.

Powertrains and Performance

There are three engine choices for the 2009 Ford F-250 Super Duty: the standard 5.4-liter gasoline V8 (300 horsepower and 365 lb-ft of torque); an optional 6.8-liter V10 (362 hp); and the most popular choice, the available 6.4-liter PowerStroke turbodiesel V8, which makes 350 hp. Regardless of engine choice, buyers have a choice of transmission: a six-speed manual or a five-speed automatic and either two- or four-wheel drive.

Properly equipped, an F-250 Super Duty can tow up to 12,500 pounds and handle a 3,200-pound payload.

Safety

Antilock disc brakes are standard, but neither side- nor side curtain airbags are available. Power-adjustable pedals are optional on XLT and Lariat models (equipped with the automatic transmission), as are rear parking sensors.

Interior Design and Special Features

A rugged, industrial theme marks the cabin, and materials quality is good. Chrome accents surround the gauges and air vents, while the center stack puts controls within easy reach. Dual door pockets and a massive center console/armrest provide generous in-cabin storage -- in fact, the center console box is big enough to accommodate a laptop and/or hanging files. In crew cabs, folding the rear seats up reveals a flip-out utility tray that keeps the load floor flat.
