I'm not sure if there is a single used Super-Duty on the lot, let me go take a look real quick.

Looks like there is a used 08-10 on the lot. All I could make out was the mirrors.

Cool motor, crazy power, but not worth it.

Yeah, my budget doesn't help me much either really. Hard to find a decent truck under $13k or so. I could afford more possibly, but shouldn't. I would like to find something between $11-12k.

What fog lights are you trying to wire Miles?
Is it a regular 4 prong relay? (30,85,86,87)

Thought I was the only nut that prefers a hoe over a mixer.

When doing restoration work, mixing by hand is easier.
Easier to control the final product.
