    Same here, Tim... I've been fortunate enough to be financially mentored by some EXTREMELY wealthy people ... millionaires many times over. None of them advise buying new. ;)

    I'm JUST starting to look around for a diesel F250 I'll use to pull my new travel trailer we're planning on buying soon. The one I'll get will have somewhere between 35,000 - 75,000 miles on it.

    Nice lookin' rig! Best of luck with it.

    Bear really has stepped up their game, I bought the Bear Young Gun for my 10 year old son this year because I was so impressed with the overall quality. Honestly, I bought my 9 year old a Diamond and it isn't even close to the quality of the Bear!

    All bsing aside...She is pretty good to me. Difficult... no. She is a tiny onery and alot fiesty though... but that is the way I like em.... eeerrrr.... her. :)

    Troy... that is a very nice elk shed. You got anything like that in Idaho ??? LOL

    cornfed... Tyler started out with a Bear Badge. That was very good quality and a great shooter for him. That was a great little bow. My daughter will be using it soon.

    Greg/mo... Stay away from the 6.0L from 2004-2007 in the F250's. The boss had a 2006 F350 with a 6.0L and it was horrid. Alot of other guys had the same problem with the injectors going out all the time. His was no good from the start. For a while it spent more time in the shop then on the road. He hated it. The 6.4L from 2008 and on is good. The boss has one in his 2008 F350 and loves it.

    Tomorrow I will chrono the bow. Curious to see how much speed I picked up verses the old Instinct.

    You can get a 6.0 just have an oasis report run(from a ford dealership) on it.The oasis report will tell you any and what kind of warranty work was done on the vehicle, because the 6.0 that were junk will show alot of work.
