Looks simply like a lariat with an added lift and some 20s. Man if that was a ZF6 instead of the automatic I'd be on that!

hey ... can someone please help answer my questions ?I am looking to buy one asap .

 

Yeah...you go to your local Ford dealership, then order whatever truck you want. Then, you take it to the local off road shop, and order up whatever lift you want.

 

Adrianspeeder did answer it. Its not a special package from Ford. Its most likely either a dealer installed lift or just one that somebody did and turned the truck back in. Its just a lift with some 20" wheels and tires. If you really want to find out about that specific truck I don't know why you're asking people on here. Call or email the dealer and ask THEM

 

I did email them through ebay and thier own email address listed on the auction ... I understand that I can buy the truck myself and add the stuff afterwards ... that was not my question ... I did not know dealerships would had on aftermaket parts ... I wonder if they will do that for any truck that someone buys ... but I bet they jack up the prices on the aftermaket parts so the question is which is cheaper ?

 

The dealer didn't add on those parts. It was listed as a USED truck. Somebody bought that truck, added the parts, and then sold it.

 

I see where you say it is listed used ... but I read in Description . where they also wrote "You can be the first owner of this basically brand new truck"

 

So...they're lying to you somewhere in that description. It HAS been registered before, which would make it a USED vehicle. But, it only has 300 miles on it. Hell, it's still running on the diesel that it came with from the factory.

 

The auction never said new. They say basically brand new which typically depicts a used truck. Some dealers will install aftermarket parts and others will tell you no and if they see it with aftermarket stuff they'll void the warranty. It all depends on the dealer. Bottom line it will be market up in both labor and parts. It is by far cheaper to find a good offroad or performance shop and have them sell the parts and do the work.

 

"You can be the first owner of this basically brand new truck"

 

i agree. However, our local ford dealership has two NEW f-250's sitting out front that are fully loaded, and they have fat tires at 5" lifts....pretty sweet looking. I learned my lesson with lifts on my first truck, but someone might really like it.

 

Lots of dealers will modify the trucks, and that's great, because then they can't screw you over on the warranty. Out by me, there is a dealership called Potosi Ford, who teams up with Bob Chandler (the Big Foot guy) and lifts the trucks.

 

this is the first powerstroke i ever owned. i got the flashpaq tuner. i put maganflow 4 inch exhaust on it and puttin a airraid air intake on it. hoping that will improve profromance and fuel use. any help will be welcomed

 

A local Ford dealer pimps out a couple of brand new trucks and keeps them on the lot. The certainly bring people in. He told me that the max lift that can be done without voiding the factory warranty is 5". These trucks had the lifts, nice wheels, a bull bar, and a fancy multi-tone paint job.
