So I've been lurking on here for about 6 months and have come to the following conclusions in my search for a truck;
1) I ultimately would love to have a Gen 2 Shelby or Hennessey version but cannot spend the $100-120k it would take at the moment. Should be in that position in a few years.
2) Am intrigued and would probably be selling myself short if I didn't experience the V8 everyone seems to love.
3) Low miles Gen 1's are still around so should be able to find a good example for a decent price ($35-45k) and not lose much when I move up in 3-4 years.
4) Gen 1's set up properly look pretty mean (so do Gen 2's). Kind of that old school, ****.
5) Edit: Will be able to pass the Gen 1 to my older son when my younger son drives and gets the F350.
So I'm wondering if there are differences between the different year Gen 1 models that I should be concerned about? Anything to avoid? Thanks in advance for any advice.
