    Ford and 6.4L Bashing

    Dogman: I would prefer not to have any CAT or DPF system if I could do so legally. Utah is strick and the cops have started pulling over smoking trucks and they do emissions testing every two years. One thing that needs factored into the 6.8L motors is the cost of adding Urea every 5000...

    I agree with DaveBen. That's an awesome truck. Where did you get the lights over the cab and what brand are they?

    Ford and 6.4L Bashing

    Is it just me or is there alot of 6.4L and Ford bashing? I understand that some (not all) of the early year 6.0L and 6.4L motors had some issues. The other American and Fiat owned auto companies that manufacture trucks have issues with their motors also. There is no such thing as a bullet proof...

    New Tonneau Cover Increased MPG

    JLDickmon: I don't know about the 20's at least not on a 6.4L. The only long trips I've taken on the freeway since I got my truck were dragging my trailer. The mileage increase I saw with the tonneau is all-around driving. The increase in mpg's is about 10% which is about what the tonneau...

    Service nightmare

    I'm not very technical when it comes to vehicles. However, you pay a premium when you take a vehicle to a dealer. You should get top rated service. They may fix the immediate problem but did it just reduce the life expectancy of your vehicle. May sure you get everything documented. I would...

    New Tonneau Cover Increased MPG

    I put an Extang Performance tonneau cover on my truck. The bed cover companies all say that it will increase the mpg's. I was doubltful. I've never seen anybody thread that their mpg's increase as a result of adding a bedcover. However, it really worked. Before I put on the tonneau cover I was...

    Ford Dealers are Hypocrites

    Everybody brings up great points. The dealer is Henry Day Ford in Salt Lake City. I asked the service manager if it would void my warranty to install tuners etc. He said yes. Then I asked him why his dealership would sell parts for a truck that would void the warranty. He just shrugged his...

    Ford Dealers are Hypocrites

    We all know that the dealers will try and void the warranties if any modifications are made to the motor, exhaust, intake etc. I was at the dealership where I bought my truck on Saturday and the parts department sells Superchips and Bullydog tuners. They also sell exhaust kits and high flow air...

    Back in the day------

    Tail Gunner: Thank you for your service. I was a weapons loader and an engineering assistant in the Air Force myself 10/80 through 3/87. One regret I have is not hanging in there for twenty. I had a line number for Tech Sgt when the Air Force did a force reduction and said re-up or get out. I...

    Front End Leveler Question

    Thanks for the tip about not just going with Shims. I'm new to this stuff and your advise is appreciated. The truck was a big investment for me so I want to do things right. This site is great. Thanks,

    Front End Leveler Question

    I was at an off-road parts store today and they sell front end leveler shims for $219. It sounded kind of pricey considering all that comes are a couple of shims and bolts. My question is, if I add the 2" lift to the front end of my truck, do I have to extend the brake lines or mess with...

    New Member Saying Hello!

    I have a 26-foot Tracer travel trailer. I haul my son's YZ450F and my Honda Ranchor ATV in the back of the truck. I got the long bed truck and fill it to the max with the toys and other gear. I live in Salt Lake City and we go to the Little Sahara Dunes as often as possible. I'll post some...

    Upfitter Switches

    Does anybody have any recommendations for use of the upfitter switches? The switches came on my truck and all they do is decorate the dash. I don't plan on putting on a winch or off-road lights. What else are they good for?

    New Member Saying Hello!

    I'm a new dude to the site. Bought my truck last July. Could have bought a 6.7L but chose the 6.4 because 1) damn good price, 2) 1st year model engines sometimes need time to get bugs worked out 3) camping friends have 6.4's and love them. I use my truck to tow my 26-foot trailer and toys...

    Question 6.4 reflash update

    I got the update done to my truck about 3-weeks ago. It didn't do anything for the mileage. I just looked at my paperwork when I bought the truck. The powertrain warranty is 5-years, 60k miles. I have on 2010 6.4L F350 XLT that's stock. I filled the tank last Saturday and I got 13.6 mpg both...

    Question 6.4 reflash update

    I had the update done 3-weeks ago. No affect on the mpg. I filled up on Saturday and got 13.6 mpg both on the meter and by hand calculating. 60% city, 40% highway. I have a 2010 6.4L F350 XLT (stock). I plan on keep the truck stock except because I bought and extended warranty and don't want to...
