Reason for selling: We bought a new 2013 F-350 6.7 diesel. We full-time in our Big Country 3690SL and, to be honest, the 7.3 has pulled it fine. Since we have decided to do this long-term, we thought a new truck would be in our best interest.

Everything on this truck works or runs great. No cost has been spared to keep it in top operating condition. Even the overhead console is fully functional. Non-smoker, but there is the faint smell of smoke inside, probably from the first owner. It is mainly evident on hot, muggy days, but not overwhelming at all.

The body is near perfect. There is one very small dent on the driver's side front wheel well opening (quarter-sized) and a small scuff at the rear of the passenger side of the bed next to the bumper.

This is a rust-free southern truck and has been all its life. Carfax shows original purchase in South Carolina in December, 2001 and second owner purchase in 2003. We are the third owners and purchased it in Alabama in July, 2011 with 145,000 miles on it and have put 68k on it since. 17k miles are towing our fifth wheel since the first of this year, which it did without a hiccup. I wouldn't hesitate to hook it back up to the trailer and pull it cross-country again.

In the interest of honesty, the following items are duly noted and are minor issues:
- One of the rear brake discs seems to have a high spot. You can feel light surging when braking to a stop.
- There is a little vibration in the front end and slight feathering on both front tires. Probably just a balance and alignment would take care of it.
- Engine is on original injectors. They still fire fine. Fires right up even in 20-30 degree weather with no romping. #8 injector is a tapper (common on the 7.3) that can be easily heard when the engine is running. Brian at BTS said it didn't sound very abnormal at all for a 7.3 and it has been like that since we bought the truck and hasn't gotten any worse in 67k miles of use.
