I have narrowed my truck search to two, one is a 1999.5 ford f350 crew cab dually 7.3 long bed 2wd and second is 2004 ford f350 crew cab 6.0 long bed 2wd. Both are super clean with under 80k miles and I will be buying one of them Monday. Since I'm not full time rving I think the non-dually will have more versatility when not pulling the trailer. I think it's wierd that SRW f350 have a higher tow rating. I'm so stoked! Hope everyone is having a great weekend.

IMHO - I am a chevy man but I would check the reliability of the 7.3 versus the 6.0. I think you will here more positive thoughts on the 7.3. If the two rating is in question, that would be a big factor but I prefer the better engine.
