Welcome to the group! If your anyhting like the rest of us, in a little bit of time you'll still love your truck and be hopelessly addicted to the forum!

BTW I love the color of your truck! Blue trucks rock!

 

Thanks. FTE is just another one of the many forums I belong to! It's my dedicated superduty forum! I don't want to come across as a post ***** though, as I've been here for a few weeks now and still haven't been able to aquire a siggy!

Thanks for the warm welcome! And compliments on big blue.

 

I see you're in Houston, I'm out here in Spring if you ever need some help with your truck. PM me, we'll have a beer.

 

most definetly....i'll never pass up beer with anyone!

i was passed through Spring this weekend on my way to ride the dirtbike through the national forest.

 

If she wants to get "layed" again she can come work for me. She can sit on my staff; she'll love working under me.

 

What's a PIE adaptor?
Welcome! And nice truck but why didn't you get a long bed so you could close the tailgate with your bike in there?

 

lol.

This just in:


It's time for an oil change tonight!

 

The PIE adaptor plugs into the back of the factory radio to allow for an auxiliary audio input. That way I can use my portable mp3 player and satellite radio.

I didn't want to long bed. I still need to fit the truck in the driveway behind another car.

 

You're gonna have to show me how to get that done. I love my 6-disc in-dash, but I just wish it had an aux in for my crackberry/mp3 player.

 

Thanks! Learned something new today. And you'll love the Fumoto.
I too have drooled over a few of the auctions from Texas Direct. They have some NICE 08s on there almost all the time.

 

it'll cost you about $70 for the adapter.

i'll be sure to take plenty of pictures during the install. The adapter itself is an easy install. Plug into the empty slot on the factory radio, splice two wires (12v and Neg), and voila. But I plan on having a nice clean factory look. Pics are soon to follow. This "audio" project will most likely be completed this week.

 

ya, once I found the f250 takes nearly 4 gallons of oil, i figured the valve will reduce the mess i'll make in my driveway while switching oil containers. I need to buy a larger "used oil" container.

and the eye candy at Texas Direct Auto goes waaaaaaaaaaaaay beyond trucks. Their lobby is filled with Shelby mustangs, lambos, porches, and corevettes.

not to mention, there was a lady there offering off her massage services.

 

Wow. That's a dealer who knows how to tough it out in these hard economic times.
I use a plaster mud bucket for oil changes. A standard 5-gallon bucket is a little too tall but the drywall mud buckets you buy at Home Depot are slightly less and they fit just right under the running boards.

 

i may have to look into a similar container. I didn't change the oil, as we got slammed with rain yesterday.
