i finally decided to get a new truck, im lookin for a 1999-up super duty f250 7.3 diesel with a manual tranny

well when i was just messin around a few months ago i found lots of them, 80k miles for 20 grand my max spending limit

well now that i can afford it i cant find anything, not even automatics really, finding manual transmissions are impossible!! i was even searchin within the area


i looked at ebay, autotrader, trucktrader, vehix. doesnt any1 know any good places to search

I won't lie, the manual trucks are hard to find. My 7.3's been exquisite; I love it. If you got a budget you might wonna go with a gashog, but I tow so the diesel was something I needed. I won't lie, they are extremely expensive to run. Oil changes, oil filters, fuel filters, air filters need to be done religiously, and on time. Other than that, these trucks really really turn heads, mine especially. Talk about getn' looks :cool: the truck is a rock, these trucks are ford's pride and joy.

Good luck with your search. Take your time.
