Played with a PSD Ford on Saturday.
Took an extended test drive. I've had my eye on this used one down the street for about 3 weeks.
2004 F250 6.0L PSD Auto Harley Edition w/ 11.7 K miles.
I liked the truck, however, for about the first 50 feet upon take off, it felt like the emergency brake was still on, whether towing or not towing. I have driven other PSD, and this was NOT the case, so that was the first thing.
Second thing, was the stereo was a hodge podge of the original head unit, and several other speakers placed in the truck, and none of it worked.
Third thing, the rear end sagged moreso than my stock 2500 Avalanche (w/o airbags inflated). Although it rode nice when towing, I did not like the sag.
Fourth thing, the orange did not work with my boat like I had hoped.
I took it back after about 90 minutes of giving it a full workout. Towed with my truck later that afternoon, and decided I was not missing much.

Re: Played with a PSD Ford on Saturday.
It was cool to just be able to try out towing with it. I now know that an F-250 is not what I want. Its going to have to be an F-350 dually or GM 3500 or 2500HD.
