    Who did I honk at on the way to Canton, Tx?

    Was in the 05 Black & Tan Ex pulling a 5x10 utility trailer with ramp going to first Monday on Friday or Saturday and passed a NTX decaled SuperDuty.... that also took the Hwy 19 Exit to fill up... I was in a rush so the wife and friends could go shopping @ First Monday Trade Days :) and us...

    Just a friendly reminder

    I use the spare as part of my regular rotation.... but in the excursion I don't do the changing... and I DO keep a can of the BIG tire fix a flat JUST in case.... Never liked the stuff... but my wife is not going to change that tire, but she does know how to put in the fix a flat to get her...

    I can't spout off to anyone around here......

    Ya know... this is sorta like keeping the weeds outta your nice yard.... yeah, you could through poisons at it, but the best thing is to keep a good strong grass and it will beat out most of the weeds :) Make your wife your best friend and make it so BOTH of you know that that's the most...

    What kind of HP can the TQ Shift handle???

    I know there IS a magic number... what it is somewhat depends on all the variables.... Gene's (weweld) probably has as many little ponies running around his PS as anyone.... and is mostly stock IIRC.... but with the large tires, etc you have, I would say the strain is not just on the engine...

    Watersports anyone?

    I had looked on snopes too... they say they DID try it with a kayak alone at first to see what the sharks did.... but still, bet they had to give him muscle relaxers to get his butt off the bottom the first time he tried it :)

    iRobot Roomba

    Exactly why we got one - dark hand scraped wood floors and a 105 lbs white lab - but mostly an 8 foot east facing window on the back and lot's of glass on the front door on the other side.... the low angle of the sun in the morning and evening makes the dog hair POP out on the floor... SO, we...

    Oil change interval question

    My only concern about extended oil changes (i.e. > 7500 miles) is what will Ferd say if you have a problem and they want receipts for all oil changes since birth ???? In fact, on one of these sites someone is saying their dealer said the extra oil filtration system caused his problem :) :) :)...

    Truck Pull/ Drag Racing Launching

    Doing that IS a tranny mod.... do it too many times and your tranny is modded SO much you will need a new one :) :) Actually power braking does increase wear on your TC... that's why most people with autos that do that will let the other guy stage first... that way you can limit the amount of...

    flat tax or fair tax???

    PB.... Do you think there will be any money there for US, I don't expect it - or if there is any, I expect I'll be taxed to death on it :) Embedded sales tax may not work either.... some will just buy everything out of the country.... Agree 100% - it's broken.... not IRS, not SS..... de...

    salesman says i should

    IN my case re the 02 7.3 Ex that they bought back, my selling dealers gen'l mgr did ALL the legwork.... I really didn't recall talking to Ford at all... he played the middle man and REALLY helped me out.... Have bought 2 more ex's from him since.... and remember, it's a negotiation, no matter...

    Reprogramming programer?

    As PB said, it depends.... many tiems it's not worth the effort, just look for someone that might give you a trade in on an SCT or sell it outright and get the sct :)

    Exhaust ??? Strait pipe???

    Performance gains? minimal but SOTP a bit depending on how "flow-thru" your existing muffler is... Sound - MUCH, MUCH LOUDER if my 03 Ex with a straight pipe is any indication.... :)

    Power increase with MBRP exhaust

    KT since MOST stock 6-oh's i've seen on a dyno have put down about 275HP, your mods look like about 30 HP :)

    MPG Finally!!

    You must have it behind a password or something, here's what I get too:

    Power increase with MBRP exhaust

    ANYTIME you increase output from the engine, there is that much less "work" it has to do to push the exhaust out... in fact a properly tuned exhaust system will help "pull" or scavenge the exhaust from the engine, thereby letting more charge in the intake faster, i.e. more power... this is where...
