The 8.1 has a notorious appetite for oil. Ask him if it's a 2-cycle and is burning all that oil, or if it is just leaking out the pipe when he drives down the highway.

Just don't tell him about the V10 plug ejection problem.

Know what the pisser is? I was told this week that I could start working from home. Thus, my driving will drop from 100 miles/day to 0 miles/day. I COULD have kept my V10!!!

V10KLZZ71S,

He has traction control. I thought it could be turned off, though!
Don't worry, his acceleration off the line will be worse, along with his gas mileage (6 to 8 MPG, due to lead foot).

I looked in to a K2500 burb, but like the 'X' to much.

As HarryO said, if it's an automatic push-button 4x4, his issue is probably traction control. Nothing about the Allison will keep you from spinning the tires... not that I would have ever tried this in my D/A truck.

I'd just let him think his problem is that weak GM big-block.

NoMO may be driving "the enemy", but his heart is still blue (oval)

Darn tootin'!
Pretty sure I'm going to be getting rid of this truck as soon as I "legally" can. Purchasing via the employee plan requires a 6-month ownership. With our new work-at-home policy, I think another big Ford gasser is in my future.
