Message: [QUOTE="Bosshawg600, post: 491945, member: 6376"] Well, very shortly here I will be looking for a new Work truck/Daily driver. After numerious Dodge's, its time to move away from those for a while....... So 6.4's have come up to the top of my list! Long story short, i think they are good trucks...... Anyways, my question is 2 fold. [SIZE="5"]1.[/SIZE] For price reasons, and future plans for the truck, I have been looking at purchaing a fleet truck. Now Im not 100% sure if this is a good idea or not, but for what I am seeing price wise, its worth looking into! So is a former fleet vehicle worth buying? What I am looking for is an 4x4 F-350/450 C&C. not too concerned about interior options as long as its PW,PW and AC......Im hoping to find one already delted, but those are few and far between. But as far as 6.4's are concerned, Im not to knowledgeable on them quite yet. my Plan is just to keep it mildly stock with just full deletes, Programmer and some simple bolt ons.......for now.... 2008 Trucks just like this in the 100K to 150K mile range are going for 15K give or take a bit and i think thats quite a good deal!!!! [SIZE="5"]2.[/SIZE] Reason for the C&C is I have had an itch to build something kind on unique for this next truck.........Basically make this...... [ATTACH=full]98400[/ATTACH] But a Super Duty Version with a bit different wheel and tire combo. Stretching the bed wouldnt be too hard and my plan is a 10ft bed instead of an 8ft, keep it regular cab and use a 2012 DRW bed. I think it would be a unique truck and work quite well for commuting, and still be great for a work truck! But has anyone done this? How exactly can a regular bed be mounted on the flat rails of a C&C???? Any advice on looking at 6.4's, fab advice for the bed stretch or even good advice on if i should even attempt this would be great!!!! [/QUOTE]
