New Magnaflow 4" exhaust
After owning my '02 F350 for more than ten years now, I have been doing some updating - and today it has a new Magnaflow 4" turbo-back, stainless steel exhaust. Doesn't sound much different and it might be my imagination but it seems like it's not working as hard. I'm taking it over the mountains (Vail Pass, Eisenhower Tunnel) tomorrow so I'll have a better idea how it handles the uphill grades.
It's a lot easier to put money into a tried & true 7.3L after window shopping at the dealership for the new ones!

yea no kidding! mine is a V10, she's never given me any trouble and it's definitely cheaper to keep her than to buy a new SD

other than that, today i just drove it, and at the end of the day i started cleaning the interior a bit. gonna clean the whole thing when i have time. i use that cheap yellow bottle spray foam from any auto store/walmart calStuff. works great, i've been using it for years on interior panels and even leather, and it really works great on textured/grainy hard panels if you let the foam sit for like 30 seconds then scrub it and wipe it dry. here's a few 50/50 shots, you never really notice just how dirty it actually is until you compare it like this.
also tried one of those steering wheel covers, not sure if im gonna keep it or not. kinda cool being neoprene, practical to hide dirt etc, but i kinda like the stock wheel without a cover being skinnier since i have nerve damage so the stock wheel is easier for me to grip. ultimately i'd like a black OEM wheel, or a wheel with wood grain. not sure yet.
this new damn 3rd brake light is so bright. gonna put LED lights in it, but damn it almost lights up the whole bed!
