picked up a new to me tow rig last week, its a 2000 f250 crew cab short bed with 7.3 auto. has more miles than i was looking for at 203k but tranny was rebuilt 25k ago and it runs good. going to take off the crappy lights on the front. and may take the brush guard off too. or at least pull it off and repaint it as its got some rust on it in places.

That's a good looking truck, looks like it was taken care of at least. Nice find.

Looks good. Love that everyone has been picking up 7.3's lately. 230k is nothing for these. Mine just rolled over 240k and still runs like a champ. The only major repair so far is the HPOP I'll be replacing next week, other wise just routine maintenance. You'll love it.

Looks nice!

What's the aftermarket, chrome, gauge for?
