There is a story behind that lol...
So a couple weeks ago I took the ferry over to Nanaimo to have the new V plow mounted on my '06 F250. Wasn't 50m off the boat and the prick broke down on the side of the road. Thankfully BEFORE I had the plow mounted.
I had a moment of oh shit..what now. Then decided that I can't run a reliable service with unreliable equipment. I need at least one of my trucks to be newer and more trustworthy. So I had my '06 towed to the shop, wife picked me up and we went truck shopping. Found this lease return 2017 F250 super duty for sale in town, and called the plow supplier to see if they could get me a mount for it since it's different than the mount for the older truck, they could, so I said fuckit and bought it. Only 42000km on it, easily the nicest vehicle I've ever owned.
I have reached a point with my company that I can write off most of the cost and we had planned on buying a new truck in the spring anyway.. just weird timing that forced my hand a bit early.

Then like it was fate, the very next day I scored the headache rack and rails plus a Dewalt toolbox that all fit like a glove for a cool 180 bucks lol.

The best was the beacon lights. I got 2 x plug in type.. get home, the 12v outlets in the 350 aren't working so had to hard wire it, and the new 250 has "military grade aluminum
" body panels so the light didn't stick. Had to screw a metal electrical receptacle cover to the headache rack for the beacon light.. lol. It seriously never ends.. its always something.
