Ford F-350 Powerstroke

Click here to see the details on this OBS Powerstroke!

I’ve wanted an OBS F-series with a 7.3 Powerstroke for years. I don’t have a really good reason to want one. Regardless, I still do. If and when I ever do buy an old farm truck, it’ll look just like this F-350 that my friends at Musser Bros. Auction & Real Estate are selling!

It’s no secret that the Ford F-series is the best-selling farm truck in America, recently surpassing the Beetle as the most-produced vehicle in the world! Auto industry stat nerds figure that there’s a new F-series pickup sold every minute!

Kalvin Miller was the Idaho farmer who owned this truck, and he passed away about a year ago. He was a life long Ford guy; as a matter of fact, according to his son Ryan, he had 15 different Fords at one point (I believe most of them were pickups)! He loved his Fords, and he treated them well! This ’97 F-350 is no different. He leased it from a Ford dealer for three years, and bought it after the lease ended. It’s a 5-speed stick-shift with a 225-horse Powerstroke, and it’s only got 125K on the clock! Besides that, it’s rust-free, and it’s CLEAN! Click the photo and check out the listing in detail!

In short, there’s a good reason that Fords (and especially ones like this one) are the best-selling farm truck in the world. OBS (old body style) F-350s are tough as nails, and 7.3 Powerstrokes will run forever if they’re treated right. Thus, it’s getting lots of attention – the auction runs for another week and it’s already at $8600! While I don’t know where this pickup will end up when the hammer drops, I’ll be surprised if it doesn’t hit $20K! All things considered, there will always be a market for clean, well-maintained equipment; it doesn’t matter if it’s a tractor, a baler, or an old farm truck!
