I'll go the mid engine route, and stick the 7.3 in the bed. I hear a mid engine setup is the best for handling. 
Of course, if I do that I will lose the use of the bed. Maybe I can stretch the bed, and put dual rear wheels on it. Make it look like a mini F350 dually.

That Lil Pete is way too expensive for me Joe. Besides, I don't have a diesel powered F250/350. That is more up your alley than mine.
Yeah, I am loving the weather now. Hope it stays this way for a month!

Happy Sunday Nor Cal FTE. Hope everyone has a blessed day.
No plans today except to get two "accordion" doors installed to make the AC more efficient in the living room. Going to block off the kitchen/dining room from the living room with one, and the hallway with the other. Haven't used the AC in about a week, but I know it is still summer, so you never know when the heat will come back. Want to be prepared for it.

I have a swamp cooler, but the hotter it gets, the less effective the swamp cooler is. However, I have been using that instead of the AC because it has not been that hot lately, so I save on my electric bill
