    Super Duty Less

    Hell! I would have loved to keep the KR! Something that heavy would be a bear to tow behind the coach though. Too many modifications would be required. The Ranger at least, even though it's a 4X4 auto, only required a neutral tow kit consisting of a status light and a PCM reprogram. No...

    Super Duty Less

    I have sold my F-350 King Ranch Dually and 5th wheel. Bought something just a bit bigger............... I have a smaller truck now which is hard to get used to. Specifically a Ford Ranger 4X4 automatic which goes where it's told!

    General Ameritrac

    Nope. It's a groove with no flap. Goes all the way around both tires. Not something that I could have rubbed up against. Tires have about 20,000 miles on them.

    General Ameritrac

    I took a couple of pictures. Hope you can see the groove in them. The first one is of the front tire and shoes no grove (which is about 1.5 inches above the raised letters and runs all the way around). http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b88/PuddlePirate/IM002357.jpg The next several pics...

    Seduced to the blue side

    Welcome! Sounds like you found the right truck and right dealer. We have some pretty knowledgeable folks, so, if you have questions? Ask! Ain't no stupid questions here! I'm sitting here in a campground, having my last cup of coffee, before I pack up my 14,000 pound fifth wheel and head...

    2006 and new warranty extension

    I sent Ford an e-mail to clarify this as I just bought my wife an 06 Fusion on the 10th of August. This was their reply. Dear Gordon, Thank you for contacting the Ford Motor Company Customer Relationship Center regarding your vehicle's warranty coverage. Retail customers who purchase a...

    General Ameritrac

    The tires are General Ameritrac TR LT 235/85R16 Load Range E. I noticed something unusual on the outside of both rear outside tires. It looks like you peeled a thread out of the sidewall area, about just outside and above the white lettering. This groove runs all the way around the tire...

    Is this Turbo Surge?

    Three hours into towing my 14,000 trailer, I felt the truck jerk a couple of times. When it happened the 3rd and 4th time, I noticed on my Turbo Boost gauge it sweep from 15 lbs to 35 lbs very quickly. There was not noticeable power decrease because it happened that quickly. It did it a...

    Wash Wax and detail

    Just remember. No one is going to do a better job then you can. Save the money and make a weekend out of it.

    King Ranch Steering Wheel

    Are the steering wheels different 04 to 05? Do you have radio controls on it or something? They charged me 345.00 including shipping! I just sent my core back last week. Forgot the core charge of 100.00, so initially my cost was 445.00.

    King Ranch Steering Wheel

    I think I may have posted this before, but, I replaced my King Ranch leather steering wheel with a direct replacement model from Allied Technology. Kind of spendy at 345.00 (including shipping), but it was worth it. The top and bottom is Oxford Burl wood overlay. The burl wood and leather are...

    You are way more understanding than I would be. What kind of shoddy operation are these fools running?
