With a heavy heart I have decided to sell my one of a kind Powerstoke F-250. Make no mistake, this is a collector quality, near showroom example of the legendary 7.3-liter Powerstroke "million-mile motor" F-250's. These trucks are on the rise and low mile examples rare and becoming very sought after as well as collectable. The truck is a head turner, I always get compliments. The 7.3-liter Powerstroke turbo diesels are considered by many one of the best trucks ever built, they are over engineered, bullet proof, reliable, economical, & built to last! Can be driven anywhere any time. No stories, no disappointments, needs nothing. Perfect Carfax. Clean and clear Washington title in my name.
