    Can I run BioDiesel ?

    Stupid Question #2: What do the numbers (5, 20, etc) mean? Is that a percentage that is Bio, or the kind of Bio (corn via soy etc)? Educate a N00b, I'm interested!

    Location of front hitch for winch? Pic?

    I'm considering the Warn winch that attaches to a standard trailer hitch (though I am a little concerned it may not be up to the task of the heavy SD). Part of what I like about it is that I could add a hitch to the front of my truck and then have the option to use it from the front or back...

    New Edge w/ Attitude+TBE+CAI=CEL - how to reset?

    Maybe the Evolution has those features, my Juice/Attitude doesn't... I disconnected the batteries for awhile and the light is now off, now the question is will it come back on...

    New Edge w/ Attitude+TBE+CAI=CEL - how to reset?

    Yesterday I got my truck back from the shop, and was having a great time cruising around checking out the new peformance setup (edge w/ attitude, turbo back exhaust, and cold air intake)...until I threw a Check Engine Light. The truck seems to be running fine, and all the gauges (Edge and...

    Thoughts on this performance package? >>

    My 06 SD PSD has about 6500 miles on it now, and I'm ready to do some performance mods. Right now a guy I know suggests the Edge w/ Attitude, Magaflow TB exhaust, and brickforce (or something "force") CAI. I know the Edge might not make the most power, but I really don't need the absolute...

    New Center Console?

    That is pretty nice, but doesn't have the functionality I'm looking for. I'd like something with a clip for a notepad, pen holder, indented rubber mat (so things don't just slip off), etc...

    New Center Console?

    2006 F250 SD CC Lariat w/ Captains Chairs. The 'wood' piece on top of the console is all scratched up, and I'd really like something less fragile and more functional. Anybody know of any options? Thanks.

    Loud whining kinda sound when towing?

    So it could be anything from a fan to the clutch?:eek: That's a pretty wide range of possibilities. In the event it is either, is it anything to worry about? When I hear it should I let the pedal off the floor? ;)

    Loud whining kinda sound when towing?

    Is there a cooling fan of some kind that switches itself on in high load situations? If so, that's probably it.

    Loud whining kinda sound when towing?

    Sorry, 2006 F250 SD PS CC FX4, 6k miles. It's not the turbo whine, it's something else - something lower pitched, louder, and intermitant. More of a whirrr-whirrrrrrrr-whirr sound...

    Loud whining kinda sound when towing?

    Sometimes when I am towing something heavy up a steep grade I hear a loud whirring or whining sound, and it goes away as soon as the load decreases. Until now I've thought it was some kind of tranmission cooler or something, but since I've been towing more and more I thought I should make sure...

    Trouble shifting into 4WD; thoughts?

    Sorry, it's an 06 w/ 5k miles. The transmission doesn't seem to be changing, it's as if nothing happens when I turn the switch - the 4wd light doesn't even come on... Thanks.

    Trouble shifting into 4WD; thoughts?

    I recently had the occasion to use 4WD in my truck for the first few times (in snow). I have the electronic shift on the fly as well as manually locking hubs, and each time I was traveling below the maximum speed to shift and the wheels were not spinning. Most of the time when I switch...

    My new 6.0 F250SD! Awesome!

    My new 6.0! Awesome! Wow, what an awesome truck! I've never had a Ford before, or a diesel, and now I can honestly say I'll have nothing but! I love the way it looks, inside and out, and that motor is insane. I use the truck to pull my race car in an enclosed trailer, the thing weighs about...

    Badass air horn for 06 SD?

    I've seen some posts about aftermarket air horns, and I'm thinking of something like that for my new truck. Can anyone recommend a brand/system for me, link me to a vendor, and direct me to install info? Thanks! :thanks

    Leveling kit and overall height >>

    I'd like to add a leveling kit, but if my truck is any taller it won't fit in my garage. Does the leveling kit increase overall height at all? TIA

    2006 F250 CC FX4 Height? HELP ASAP!!!

    Test Drive Complete: WOOHOOO!!! IT FITS! 2005 F250 4x4 Crew Cab LB w/ 17" wheels fits with about an inch to spare. The truck I ordered is an F250 4x4 CC also, but it's an 06 SB FX4 w/ 20" wheels and clearance lights. Do you think it will be any taller?

    Roll-N-Lock bed cover?

    Really? 2min? Can you tell me more about the removal procedure? Could a motorcycle still be strapped in as usual (front tire against the back of the bed) with the device in place?

    Roll-N-Lock bed cover?

    That system looks pretty sweet. Is the price comparable to the RollNLock? How deep into the bed does the spool go (i.e., how intrusive is it)? I sometimes haul motorcycles, and traditionally they are strapped down w/ the front tire against the back of the cab - is this still possible?

    2006 F250 CC FX4 Height? HELP ASAP!!!

    I'll have to see about the door/track measurements, though it's not like just the leading edge of the door hangs low - it's the whole thing (which makes me think adjusting the track might not help). Regarding the length, it's only because the garage that became available is so big that I...

    2006 F250 CC FX4 Height? HELP ASAP!!!

    OK, here's the story. I recently moved to San Francisco, and when I moved abandoned all thoughts of buying a truck. Last month a big garage in my building opened up, and I was able to get it - so I ordered the truck I had been wanting. Trouble is, now that I've had a chance to measure the...

    Roll-N-Lock bed cover?

    Has anyone tried a Roll-N-Lock bed cover? I know the website says they don't work with spray in liners, is this true? With regard to the spool where the cover is housed when rolled up, how much does it intrude into the bed? Would it be possible to get a motorcycle in the bed with the spool...

    Looking at new SD, some equipment questions >

    Lol, well, I didn't. It turned out that I was moving to San Francisco, not Utah (where I had planned to need a truck), and I didn't think the truck would work so well here. I'm still kinda uncertain how I'll pull my race car, but one thing at a time I guess! :dunno
