ONE THING I HATE.....

One Thing I Hate
<hr style="color:#ffffff; background-color:#ffffff" size="1"> Just wanted to start a thread, maybe it'll get some attention, but I want to get this out there.

What is the one thing about your SD that drives you absolutely nuts, anything at all, if you think your truck is perfect in every way, fine no need to chime in.

For me it has been my 06 F350 , the one thing that drives me absolutely crazy is the small fuel tank on the short box.....

I'd like to hear from all the truckers.......

The one thing I really don't like...The small fuel tank.
Ford must have their head up their butt when they decided to put a 26 gallon tank.

The turn signal lever. I f-ing hate it.
And the weak retracting seat belt.
Everything else is perfect.

The small fuel tank always sucks. At least make it an option to get a bigger tank.

ditto on tank - but to keep some carrying capacity - they had to use those old tanks that were on the shelf

Did anyone mention Sync and Nav or not nav as my wife calls it

Emissions equipment/sensors that shuts down these trucks and are prone to fail because of inadequate testing time given by the EPA before it was rammed down the big 3's throat to quickly and eventually the consumers became beta testers on our dime and small fuel tank.

End rant

The MFT. I wish they would have kept the old Denso nav radio from the 11-12s.

No complaints about the 35 gal gas tank on a SB 6.2

With the exception of the soggy rear suspension that costs several hundred bucks to bring back to real life standards, then the 38 gallons of four buck plus per gallon of fuel with zip amount of lubricity that needs a 'booster' additive to be on the safe side, I so far haven't found too much to hate about my '11. Yet!!

Small tank for sure. That and it's too small, needs a 4.5" lift to fit 37's.

Would automatic air bags level side to side to fix this?
