Finally did it

Been shopping trucks for a while as I got salesmanned and my poor truck has been outgunned by the trailer. It has pulled it probably 2k+ miles, and it has rarely been easy or a joy.
So without further ado, here ya go. Thanks for all your input when I started looking. Now I can put my truck in my signature tag without shame

We had a 93 F250 supercab long bed diesel. That was one of the most trouble free tow vehicles we have owned. Congratulations on your new to you truck.

Thanks guys. Really wanted to hold out for a 1 ton, CC, manual, 4x4, pre emissions, OBD2 truck. Got tired of hunting for unicorns and leprechauns. They ARE out there. When I found them they were out of budget, as owners know what they have.
Have to do the carrier bearing out the gate, and a cam position sensor. Relatively cheap parts and some time.
Just glad the hunt is over and found a puller that doesnt cost anywhere near what I will make this year.
