New guy here. My name is Bubba and I am lookin inot gettin a F250. I currently have 95 F150 and am ready to move onto bigger and beter things. I like the 9th Generation looks and I want the Crew Cab. I have read that the Crew Cab started in 1996 on the F250. Is this true?

Also I plan on gettin the Heavy Duty Version with the short bed as well.

How is the 7.5L compared to the 5.8L? Is there a big differance in HP, gas mileage, etc.

Laslty is there anything specifac I should check when lookin for one? Any information is welcome and greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Bubba
