I picked up my new truck today :)

I decided after 5 months of owning my 2004 Lariat I decided to trade it in and get a new truck. I am not a mechanic and I rarely do any of my own work on my cars, so owning a used truck was not a good experience for me. Don't get me wrong, I loved my 04 F250, but even though it only had 68000 miles, it still has problems. No engine problems, it seemed I had various front end trouble and a "drive train" problem. I have to say, it was 5 months of unhappiness, so a great deal came along on a 2010 left over, has most of the options that I want, and I love it. I really don't see any performance difference in the 2 trucks, but it is alot quieter, I can make a U turn without backing up and there is no diesel fuel smell. I will post pictures soon.
