Introduction

Hey yall,
Me and my wife are die hard ford fans since we were young. We currently have eight Fords. Our number one daily driver is a 2005 Ford F350 King Ranch 4x4 dually crew cab with the 6.0L. I have dumped about $3,000 into the truck since I bought it three years ago. Me and my wife use the truck for hauling horses and big loads of construction equipment. You see me and wife own a bussines that does everything plumbing contracting and all that plus haul horses and we even are certified mechanics. I put in head gaskets a new turbo gooseneck hitch locking truck box and also a banks turbo exhaust system. This is one of my favorite of our vehicles. Our other trucks are a 1990 Ford F350 4x4 crew cab with the 460 V8 auto tranny. Then we have a 1994 Ford F350 4x4 regular cab with the 460 V8 manual tranny and everything manual. My truck for 8 years now a 1988 Ford F250 4x4 super cab auto tranny diesel. Also our other super duty 2002 Ford F250 7.3L powerstoke diesel crew cab. A 1988 Ford Bronco 2 4x4 with lift and 302 engine conversion. Lastly a 2002 Ford F350 4x4 triton V10 crew cab. I am also buying a 1988 Ford F450 4x4 flatbed diesel. Yes we own alot of fords but we need them for our job. We have three tractors with backhoes a John Deere small residence tractor, a Case 580 Super L tractor which is for big digging and an old case 430CK tractor. Also we have two gooseneck trailers that are 24ft long and three bumper pull ones ranging from 10ft to 20ft. We have two skidsteers a bobcat and a case. Also two forklifts both Hysters. We love 4 wheeling thats why we got the bronco 2. me and my wife have been married for 12 years as of December. Also the king ranch has a harsh life of pulling a 4 horse gooseneck trailer. I am a diesel fan mostly but do drive gases as you see. Love the superdutys. Attached is pics of our king ranch the truck box is off in the pics because we were moving and needed the room. I really want to get another one around the same year.
Trav and Mariah.
