    Dreaming of the 450 K.R.

    I have a F-450 KR with 4:30 gears. At 65 mph I am turning about 2100 rpm. So far I am getting around 12-14 MPG.

    99 late or early

    I ordered my 99 in July `98. The 99's all had the badge on the fender. One of the many changes with the 99.5 was to put the badge on the door. Like I stated anyone could buy the 99.5 badges and put them on the door, heck I did that `cause I liked them better.

    99 late or early

    one thing I can say for sure (as I had one of the original 99 PSD's), there is a V8 badge on the front fender. I forget if it says Powerstroke or not, but I believe it does. I have them in my garage, but I ain't home right now. The 99.5 put the badge on the door where they've remained since...

    Remote Start

    Why is the viper so much better than the remote startef from Ford? Doesn't the Ford kit use one fob for both starting and locking/unlocking the doors? Does the Ford unit provide cool down too? I'm am interested in remote start before the snow flies and am not in need of an alarm system...

    08 f450 super duty question

    Oh yea, I also noticed a lot less bounch towing the 5er. Much smoother ride (my wife and her herniated disc can attest to this).

    bed liners?

    I've had Line-x on my 99 F-250 and 02 GMC 3500. Rhino on my `06 F-350. All had 5er hitches. After a long trip in hot weather, I saw the Rhino liner start to bublle from under the mounting rails. I went back to Line-X in my new `08 F-450.

    Two new problems A/C Vents and Locks

    When I had my `99 F-250, the A/C or Heat not blowing thru the vents was a sure fire symptom that the vacuum pump wasn't working. Without the vacuum pump, the FWD won't switch in either. `99's were notorious for failing vacuum pumps as they were real cheap pumps.

    08 f450 super duty question

    just got an `08 F450 last week. Turning? Turns on a dime. I am really impressed. Almost as good as my wifes Honda. Just pulled my 16,250# trailer for the first time today. It did an impressive job towing. From a dead stop it was better than my `06 F350. While moving, I think it was as...

    Teapot whistle, Now I've had it

    after 3 days of towing (on a trip) I am now convinced this whistling noise is coming from the fan unit. Don't know if it is the eletric motor, a bearing or just the fan speed. It appears that the fan unit runs (i forget off the top of my head) at 4 or 5 speeds. You can hear the rpm's raise...
