There's a fumigation company removing their tent from the house across the street...they've got the hood up on their '06 F550 service body. I strolled over to see what the trouble is, and the thing's puking it's guts out the degas bottle. The guy tells me "it does this all the time, we just add a little water every couple of days". They're filling the bottle from the water hose right now.

That poor truck

And they'll eventually cavitate a pinhole in a wall, hydro-lock it, breaking a rod, and they'll think Fords are crap.

Isn't it funny how different things would have turned out had we owned this vehicle?

Wait it out, you'll be able to pick it up cheap, soon.

It is amazing though that that engine just keeps going with blown HG. I'll bet there are a lot of them out there just like it.

Looks like a 5.4 out on the San Jacinto Fault just now.

Only a mild roll up here.
