Well, here it is! What do you think? Worth $4500?













I went ahead and drove it home tonight, I couldn't wait until the weekend!

It's got a few bumps and bruises, but lots of potential!!! And runs great! He said it had a new clutch in it, no idea if it's SM or DM flywheel. I'll pull the inspection cover tomorrow and see.

Yeah, and it all works except the forward and back. Notice how close the seat is to the steering wheel.......I'm 6' 3"

The story to that was, after starting it up one morning and letting it sit in neutral and warm up, the truck decided it wanted to see what was inside the barn......... E-brake..Duh! (if it works???)

Yeah, he looks that way because Monday evening the 6.7 in his 2011 F450 with 44,000 miles locked up tight! It's at the dealership getting a new engine.

I keep hearing horror stories about them, like 11 grand for a high pressure fuel pump that they will not pay for. Ford's excuse, you got bad fuel.

I posted over on the 6.7 part of the forum about it and one guy said that the HPFP could have grenaded.

The dealership put a scope in the cylinder and said the end of one of the injectors either burnt off or broke off, filled the cylinder with fuel, locked the engine and busted the piston. The truck was sitting idling when it happened.

For the life of me I don't understand why these products can't be throughly tested over and over again before being dumped on the market.
