We did not get any hail, but we did get rain. Been raining off and on all day.

Jeff, it will when the Bronco sells.

That's not hard to do been working from dusk to Dawn , then when I get home there's farm work Irrigation, disc, spraying, feeding . O well I'll do it TomarrowLOL

 

Just found out something interesting tonight. A 1993 Ford Bronco with the 351 engine has a top speed of 90 mph according to Ford. After all, the speedometer only goes up to 90 so it must stop there. That is not the interesting part. What is interesting, is that a 1995 Ford F250 4x4 with the 7.3L Powerstroke diesel engine has a top speed of 180 mph! I know this because Ford put a 180 mph speedometer in it.



Why on earth would Ford put a 180 mph speedometer in a diesel powered pickup truck. That is so ridiculous. Must have super tall gears since it redlines at 3,800 rpm.

Happy Thirsty Thursday Nor Cal FTE and friends! Hope everyone has a great day.

Jim

 

That's true, but my speedo is in kmh not mph. Powerstroke are more ballsy and intimidating then a Bronco lol.

 

Never understood how a truck built in So Cal has a Canadian speedo, only one I've ever seen.

 

Well then the joke is on me, never expected the white numbers to be in kmh. LOL.

Jim

 

Yeah jim but you freak people out when they look at the speedo, I've done it before

 

My grandma used to have a cadillac that you could switch between mph and kph right above the stereo. I'd sneak it over all the time.

 

When I worked at Budget rentals, we had a Cadillac Seville that had the digital dash, and it had a switch to go back and forth between mph and kph.

Rick, found out from my mechanic that a trans pump is the most expensive part of the transmission. Also found out that he can replace the pump seal, so I will not have to take it to a trans shop.

Jim

 

Sweet Jim. That wouldn't be bad then. I was told it was a reman that was installed about 50k before I pulled it. It looks to be but I have no way of proving it.

 

Thumbs up from me

 

Well, that would be awesome if it was, but I would not know how to prove it either. I guess my mechanic can tell me when he puts the new seal in. He already doesn't like the idea, of me buying the truck or the trans, so maybe this will cheer him up a little, and the news that the truck does not have 400k miles on it.

Jim

 

TGIF Nor Cal FTE and friends. Hope everyone has a great day, and even better weekend.

Jim

 

Never thought it might be measured in kilometers.
