    30K miles update

    Well I bought my 07 F250 6.0 in July of 06. I just recently passed 30k miles. I honestly believe it took close to this many miles to actually break in the motor. Thr truck has been great and starts up in 20 below in Maine without being plugged in. Ford still does make a great truck. Its all...

    Engine Problems: Are the stories true?

    My 07 just rolled 17K miles with no problems. It was getting 13-14 miles per gallon but now that it is getting broke in it gets more like 17-19 mpg. She runs great and pulls like a pissed off mule!

    De-Tune 6.0L

    Good idea but I don't know of anyone who would do that. Might be an idea but anyone who runs a 6.0 diesel super duty needs the power for workin'!

    Changing my own oil

    Bush pilot is the man. That is the truth. The wix was 20 bucks vs the 10 dollar micro gaurd and the 35 dollar motorcraft. Now I am not calling anyone out or calling anyone a liar but 4 days ago when I bought my oil change materials the wix was no doubt shorter and it did have some sort of...

    Changing my own oil

    Just keep in mind not all filters are the same. I just changed mine and bought my filter from oriellys. A motorcraft filter was EXACTLY the same as a microfilter(orielly store brand). I lined them up side by side on the counter. The wix filter was 5 dollars more and it was over a 1/4 inch...

    have an 04 f250 that is a dog

    My 07 is the same way. If you want to drive over a curb you gotta give her a little juice. It may spin a little but it wil go over it. I put a predator programmer in mine and it works well and doesn't turn it up to much that you risk blowing it up. My mileage jumped from 15 in town to 19...

    4 low

    Recently, down here in PC beach I pulled a Chevy out of the sand. he was stuck up to the frame and was not moving anywhere. I pulled up behind him and hooked the tow strap up to the hook on the front. I put the truck in neutral and then switched to 4 low and put the truck in reverse. I...

    glow plugs?

    Why is it people say you must wait for your glow plugs or damage may occur? What sort of damage can not waiting cause? I know they only heat up to start and when it is really cold. What gives?

    oil change intervals

    Of course but I also want to do what the owners manual says. Why would it say 7500 if it should be 5000. My car says 3000 but should I change it at 1500 just because?

    oil change intervals

    According to the owners manual I am supposed to change the oil every 7500 miles. I did the first at 5000 and now I am sitting at almost 8000. Do you guys wait 7500 to change the oil. Most of my driving is pretty normal with very little towing going on. Would it be better to go by hours...

    turbo backfire????

    My new 07 with 6k miles is starting to make a funny noise. When I let off the go pedal it makes a sort of backfire/fart noise. It does it sometimes and sometimes it doesn't. Power output seems to be fluctuating as well. Sometimes is seems more powerful then others. Any ideas before I take...

    possible bad gas issue? I guess there is no other bad indication besides the no start condition.

    Tire recall..........

    I have the 20 inch goodyears on my truck, however the spare tire under the truck is an 18 inch continental I think. I will check it out with the delaer since it is going in for an oil change pretty soon.

    4 inch turbo back exhaust change

    Well just got off the phone with DPPI. They seem to have the best prices on MBRP exhaust. A few dollars saved is a few dollars. Anyway the 304 looks great but I am not sure I really need to spend the extra 300 on the bling. Aluminized sounds like it will not be a good idea since I...

    4 inch turbo back exhaust change

    Pretty much decided on going with the ever popular MBRP 4 inch turbo back. I have swapped out full exhaust systems on a number of vehicles but have a few questions on this system. 1. Is it possible to remove the stock downpipe with out cutting it? I mean if the truck is on the ground and...
