Although I love the durability of my 7.3, I always thought the stock 6.0 had more power and better MPG.

I won the race... Got him off the line and had him all the way. About halfway he got almost even but then I pulled away and he was toast. Saw him about 4 truck lenghts in my mirror. My buddy took some pics so after I finish celebrating I try to get them up.

Guy paid up too. Guess he knew he couldn't outrun me & i brought some muscle. LOL.

He didn't say nothing at the end but the $100 notes he gave me arn't any good. I tried passing one today & the store confiscated it.

I going to be paying him a visit w/some reinforcements.

The most fun I had with mine was racing my food rep with his Mustang GT. He had a cold air intake and cat back and thought his stang was fast. I smoked him pretty bad. It was funny. My bet was for a load of food for my restaurant. I got about $520 worth of food on that order. Too fun!!
