New to me 2016 F350 DRW
Hey all,
I'm about to trade my 2021 F250 with the 7.3 gas motor for a 2016 F350 DRW with the 6.7. It has 118k miles, but the price is better than any other truck I've seen lately. We drove it and didn't have any issues that we could see, just some cosmetic damage. Does anyone here have experience with the 15-16 trucks? What should I start with maintenance wise to make it last another few hundred thousand miles? What should i have the dealer do before I purchase? Any other advice? I plan on using it to tow a 20klb 5th wheel toy hauler. I want to add air bags for sure, possibly add a tune and an intake. I don't want to delete it right now because I don't know where we will be settling down yet and some places care more about emissions than others. Let me know what you think Thanks Caleb Last edited by ticopowell; Thu, November 17th, 2022 at 09:40 PM. |

If all you're looking for is something to pull the Toy Hauler, I'd honestly look into a Navistar or Freightliner Sportchassis hauler. It's much better suited for hauling 10,000+ Lbs. and they come with things like exhaust or compression braking which make the hills a breeze. For reference, this is what we ended up with: (click on image to enlarge) Anyway, that's just my thoughts.

Thanks Bill,
I passively looked into those, and maybe after a few years we can upgrade because I know all your points are correct with braking and safety. Once I am in my second or third year at Delta we might upgrade to one of those. Any MX tips for the 6.7? |

Other than that, they seem pretty solid.
