I have the same pickup here at the house. Starts every time in any temp, decent power for what I need and it's the best 4x4ing pickup I've ever owned.

I have to agree, I have an F350 with the 5.8 and I can leave it sit for a month in the coldest winter weather go out and hit the key and it's sittin there idleing. Not a bad truck for a gasser although not a powerhouse for towing, but thats ok thats what my cummins is for.
