    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?

    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?

    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?

    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?

    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...

    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!!!

    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 >

    I'm about to buy a truck, but as I price them online I'm presented with a few options that I don't quite understand. Can one of you shed some light on these? What is body side molding? Why do you need more than one (or a heavy duty) alternator? Is the 12.5K Ford Hitch the one I’m going to...

    Replacement for "wood" on dash?

    One thing I just can't stand about the F250 is the damn plastic wood on the dash and center console. Does anyone know if anyone offers a replacement piece that is either made of another material or a higher quality wood replica? Links and names of vendors are much apprecaited. TIA

    King Ranch leather durability/maintenance??

    I'm considering the KR package on a new F250, but I had a few questions I hoped someone could answer: Does the KR leather wear well? Does anyone have any pictures of KR leather with a few miles on it? Does KR leather require any special upkeep? Is it more sensitive to wear or getting...
