    its not a super duty....but

    clicked over 120 miles today on the odo......still figuring out all the gizmos and setting the radio and OMG the stuff on the display to keep track of is mind boggling but not boost???? get up and go is easily a bit quicker than the pickup, i think that 3.73 rear gear has much to do with that...

    its not a super duty....but

    yep me to, i searched for weeks to find any real data. the spy photos look screwy. but i think thats from the f150 fenders and hood. i like the expedition to NOT look like a super duty or 150 now an excursion, its a big hefer so a superduty wink would be ok. we shall see the 17 superduties are...

    Not happy

    f250 short box...i think it will squat considerably as the rear set of springs are not the same on the 350 long box. most 250s'''short boxes are built for ride over spring stiffness, unless you get the higher gvwr, which pushes you to a 350 . back in the day my 92 f250 4x4 supercab long...

    its not a super duty....but

    you know the rumor mill is hot on a 6.7 option in the 2017 expedition....which would mean its going to get at least part of a f250 front frame, maybe be a baby excursion. or they drop in some little oil burner that will leave a bad taste. our two dogs will enjoy the back seat room and separate...

    its not a super duty....but

    after weeks of back and forth on a 4x4 250 and what the costs would be to make it four down towable we punted and went with a 2016 KR Expedition 4x4 never owned a white vehicle before....

    Check your HPX Lines!

    OMG your alive, been awhile, agree your lines are a bit on the old side, a flex line there imo could have been a ss tube, a few years back during the rebuild of the marines ea 6b, we replaced all alum tubing with stainless ones, hard as heck to get in place on some spots, but they didnt vibrate...

    Question Driving Tips for Towing and MPG

    my 06 with cc 4:30 rear gears..it liked turning high rpms, pulling the fiver and grossed at a tad under 23k all hooked up, i was able to squeeze 12.5 mpg at 68 to 70 mph empty i saw 13-14 used t/h with every trailer, this was before the new engines with the engine brake.

    Might be back in a super duty sadlle very soon

    its more of a want than a need, we figured if we were going to replace the 150, it made sense to look very close at the 250, he has the price set very very low and it made sense to look. but having to do a driveshaft disconnect or swap t case, it not as Great. the 150 tows four down and the...

    Might be back in a super duty sadlle very soon

    well for me, the hauler trailer i pull now, with the 150 onboard is right at 9800lbs, so a super duty is around 2k lbs lighter if its on the ground, i can tow the 150 flat but have resisted. my bones are simply getting old and a change may be in order

    Might be back in a super duty sadlle very soon

    yep i was just searching for a few...we have been looking for a few months really liked the expedition 4x4 perfect what we need 4 down towing...but around here finding one with out the 22" wheels in a platinum or king ranch is super hard, unless of course you want white. 2016 expeditions stop...

    Might be back in a super duty sadlle very soon

    my f150 has esof but it will lock out the transfer case to neutral for four down towing you would think the super duty would be as well, my 1992 had it. not sure if i will shop around, this is a super deal...but not if i have to swap cases or do the driveshaft disconnect finding one with a...

    california water

    i thought i had read about one new san Francisco. but couldnt find any updates. cheap...r/o systems or flash desalination is, or should be affordable. at the power plants that use steam or gas turbines they could use the waste heat to boil or flash the water. i need a few hundred million to do...

    operator command regeneration

    not a 6.7 but my 8.3 ISC in the bus, has a manual or operator control to force a regeneration of the DPF. the book states under NORMAL operation in the RV the load is enough to generate sufficient heat to keep the dpf clean within back-pressure specifications that being said, the super duty...

    2017 Super Duty Trucks

    scary thing is the heavy duty tow max 150 and the basic 250 overlap with towing and weight carrying... but a 150 frame for long term heavy towing i think will result in unhappy campers... bigger brakes and stability are golden. saw a new 250 super cab short box while at the dealer today with my...
