Josiah breaks alot of stuff though. You should ask him how many IWE and exhaust hdr problems he has had over the years since lifting.

btw, there is more than 6" and 35" on that truck. he stacked a 2.5" kit ontop of his lift kit and has 37" tires



edit: this is a better vid of his truck...except for the annoying girl who won't shut up

Well between my father and myself... we realized we did not need two pickup trucks between us. Essentially, we rolled them both (my F150 and his F250) towards this F350. It is a corporate vehicle now. Sucks filling her up.... but DAMN is it a fine truck.

Ha Ha that last video was cool, besides the Ford pulling the cheby out that the dodge couldn't the jet ski falling off the back of the cheby was pretty funny too

The 04+ f150s get most of their torque at around 2000 rpms and the cpu has a special program that remaps/ changes stuff when you put the truck in 4 lo that gives it a heckuva pulling power.
The only time I've gotten my truck stuck was when it high centered in some swampy mud that came up to the bottom of my doors( see gallery). If I had a lift kit on it I don't think it would have been a problem.
IMO the f150 is the way to go, with the right tires you wont have to worry about the truck as long as you drive smartly.

you need to keep that you tube off here ...because once i get suckerd in to watching one video i can't stop and im up all night watching vids

but f-150 vs f-250 are going to do the same in the mud/woods till you upgrade the tires from stock but f-250 can let you go bigger due to a straight axle ...where 33 or 35 are good sizes for a f-150
