work/hunt/fish truck



You know... Someone's going to blame you for transporting all the wolves in to Washington. :chuckle:

Wardens truck + "wolf" in the back = how the wolves got to WA :chuckle:

06 F350 SD Crew cab Long bed. Chipped and cold air intake. Have not been very happy with this truck. Had a 96 F250 7.3 ltr. Should have kept it. Would out run the new one in a second. Would pull anything. Hindsight is always 20/20. 
I'm a Ford guy but ya those 6.0L suck!
:yeah:

Aside from having to buy an Additive for them the new fords with the 6.8's are getting awesome progress reports from almost everybody who owns them....I think next diesel I get will be me finding a ford with a blown diesel and then drupping a cummins and a built 6spd in it! Perfect truck right there.

Never should have got married. You guys have some really sweet trucks.

Keep that in mind. Women, Kids, or truck and dog.  :o :chuckle:

I'll die for my kids! Now a grandkid. Damn! Where does time go?  :dunno:

The NEW: F150 FX4 Crew Cab with the Ecoboost. BLOWN AWAY by this truck. Was going to buy a new PSD but test drove this sucker too and was floored. VERY powerful, VERY quiet, VERY efficient. Comes with electronic locker, Pro Comp Suspension, Ballastic 20" wheels and Nitto Trail Grapplers. 20 MPG and I get to pay gas prices vs. Diesel.

I have been watching those ecoboost.  :drool: I didn't know what the mpg would be on a 4x4 but looks pretty good. Is that combined? And do you have to buy premuim gas because of the turbo?

Hey! I'm not a complete idiot I have parts missing. Though sometimes I wonder.

I get 20 MPG Highway and 16 around town. NO.. you do not have to put premium in, however I have noticed tha I get better gas milege with Premium.

The real genius of this truck is not shown in the commercials.. they just show the gas mileage.. Watch the "Torture Test" http://www.ford.com/new/f-150-torture-test/

They REALLY put this thing to the test... and I must be honest its a HUGE leap in innovation for 1/2 Ton Trucks. The Engine just is not fuel efficient it is a bit scary!... even when you get on it.. it does NOT sound like it is working hard at all.. it is VERY quiet fast and immediate power.. and unlike V8s.. to get max Torque and HP, you dont have to wind up the RPMs.. It gets max Torque at 2500 RPM.. that is why people love their Deisels.. nice lowend torque for hill climbs, etc.

Right now it really is the best 3/4 on the road.. I think the other Auto Makers will be doing something very soon and the traditional big block V8 will become a rarity.

Interesting fact as well.. the Ecoboost came out AFTER the Raptor that has the 6.2 V8.. and it is FASTER and has more torque. With a nice lift like I got, I cost 10K less than a Raptor and get better gas mileage :)
