Iv been trying to sell the ol F-250 Harley. Iv had it parked next to the highway for about 2 weeks and only had 1 call... So now Im looking at trading it in.
And the 8th digit is a F. CHA CHING!
I asked the salesman whether it was a Powerstroke or not... That was a joke lol. He says, "Uh, yea, its the turbo diesel. 7.3L DI Turbo Diesel". I guess he was right when he said DI lol.
Its a real nice truck for the price. Albeit, a stake bed. More than likely its a cab n chassis which is a bit of a bummer since I was thinking about making my ext cab a dually someday. But at least the engine is swappable into my current dually
Can you say 109K on the odo?

Well talking about my wife's T&C 2009 limited, is having issues with the transm. sometimes works fine and sometimes doesn want to change to 2nd gear and only can reach 60 KMP at 3-4000 RPMs, if you shut off the mini van and start it most of the time it comeback to normal changes.
Well in a tranny shop they said was the valve box, they change it and worked some days well and then the the same problem, now they say that could be the tranny computer?? that is under the dash, can you help me with your opinions?
Thanks in advance

I came home with a truck! But it was the same one I left with...
Got to the dealership, and my enthusiasm immediately went bye-bye. It was a small building surrounded by prolly 50 cars... Great. I get the keys and told to take it for a test drive, no dealer plates or anything. So I take off down the road, hit 1st gear, hit 2nd gear, hit 3rd GRRRRRRRIND. I turned to my girlfriend and said no fricken way! Got to a stop sign, 1st, 2nd, GRRRRRRIND, 4th....
Took it back to the dealership, handed him the keys and said 3rd gears going out. All he said is I understand. Turned around and walked back out. Bass Tards
I COULD have fixed it since I do have a spare ZF in the garage, but when its all said and done, who would really want to trade a beautiful Harley F-250 for a truck that's not that nice and needs a tranny
With that being said, anyone wanna trade a Powerstroke for my Harley? Lol
