Actual Truck Talk - Alberta Edition
Gents and ladies (if any), our BS thread is going strong, but I thought it might be handy to have a thread for discussions of truck related topics that are not quite worthy of making their own thread.
Dealership experiences, favourite mechanics, wrecker / pick-n-pull finds, new truck, old trucks or any kind of Ford Truck related stuff that you want to talk about.
I'll start:
My 2005 F150 is around 206,000 kms, and she's starting to get some extra squeaks and rattles. A buddy of mine has a new ecoboost, and I'm really getting a hankering for one of those. I'll have to be scraping up my pennies for a while to pay for one though, I have a lot of other bills that come before replacing a truck which works just fine.
I have a good mechanics near me, place is called "our mechanic" and he's been very honest with me and always treated me fairly. Looks like they have a new website at Our Mechanic INC - Auto Repair in Calgary . Website doesn't say much, but I guess it doesn't have to.
So, who's using their truck for work, for play, or has something truck related in Alberta to share?

Well I have a 2009 Ranger sport 4x4 with 86,000km on it now. In my opinion my mpg sucks. I think its because I always compare it to my old F250 IDI, which was awsome for fuel economy.
As for mechanics I have two good friends that work for ford, and do alot of work at home.
Oh and for anyone that knows of one or has one I am looking for a IDI to replace the one I sold. I'm not to picky let me know what you have or if you know of one availible
