Default Buddy just bought this F250. Think it's big enough?
A good friend of mine just bought this Ford F250 FTX Tuscany package truck. This thing is massive. I want one too!

I'm guessing driving it is a tad different than driving a vette.

Nice truck but that body kit is hideous! Did it come with a tapout ticker on the back window and some 3 sizes too small affliction shirts, or does he have to buy those?

Yeah, I could do without the body kit.

He works in the oil business and wines and dines clients. This is more show than go and he freely admits it. I'm sure it's a nice write off for the company as well.

Douchebag would not be the image I'd choose, and that truck screams it. He'd have been better off with a king ranch, platinum, or a Denali HD. That aftermarket crap cost him a Tom and will be worth nada on resale. At least the factor "flashy" trucks hold some of their value.

Don't forget the hood. It really sucks, even with those fake vents

If that's the case tell him it's an awsome truck and ask him when is he going to take you out for a ride and to dinner in it.

Just do so on the phone so he doesn't see you rolling your eyes.

You have to have a nice truck to wine and dine customers in. Not one so over the top that the customer feels that you have plenty of money and can cut him a bigger break on prices.

It's a turbo. It blows.

I have a 2012 F-250 Lariat Crew Cab Diesel. I love it and it ended up being my daily driver, even over my 2005 Vette.

Is that an actual factory package, or did the dealer create that abomination?
