Performance Potential, Style, and Multipurpose Versatility Were the Dealmakers for This ’03 F-350 Score.

That was the case with Travis Johnson, who lives in Royal Palm Beach, Florida, and works as a mechanic at Pela Motorsports in Jupiter, Florida. Even though he’s a young guy, Travis’ ’03 Ford F-350 is the 10th truck he’s owned over the years—including a 10-second drag truck.
