Afternoon all. Gave the truck a good run on the back roads upstate. Took her to the car wash this morning and washed the salt and grime off. Rewarded myself with two tall Guinness's and some wings over at Sliders in West Hartford. Now waiting for Corn beef and cabbage dinner. Happy St. Patrick's day. One day early have to do it today. Tomorrow is a work day.

Evening guys.
Had to take my older son to the ER last night.
We were at a scout camp out and a leader behind him tripped and his head got squished between the leaders body and a tree.
He has a slight concussion and a broken nose.
But he is doing good and is proud of his first broken bone. LOL
I have been ready for spring for the last few weeks Tim.
Now I am sitting in front of a nice fire.

Morning all. A little chilly out there this morning. I guess that south of us is getting a good amount of snow. This time I don't miss it because the truck is washed and looks nice sitting there in the driveway. Dam it looks pretty.

A better idea would be to bring it to a local independent Ford franchise for them to take a look.
Seriously, that really sucks. I've never heard of anyone with an issue that's as perplexing as what's going on with your truck.

Him either. He said hes had a few dead pedal issues but never this serious. The monaco tech coming to help him apparently won best diesel tech in the Boston area award and is their best tech...so im hoping he can find somethinf. Now ive heard the braking system is kntegrated with the voltage reference and that can kill a throttle pedal. I think a blownout left rear shock causes a dead pedal too

Damn Miles, hope the Ford tech helps. Interesting thought about the traction control, I know that some of the new tractors do just that using the ABS sensors to see wheel spin and cut the throttle. Was that an option included in the KR?
