The last time the Turbonator said "I'll be back" was when he was headed to the north GA GTG. This time the Turbonator said "I'll be back" was just days before my wife and I meet Leonard in person near his home.
Is it a trend... A sign... Aliens... Or just random silliness...

It sounds like FTN has gone through a great deal of trouble to create credible reasons for the evaporation of every opportunity you might otherwise have had to try out the Turbonator.
Ford Truck NoWayI'mGonnaLetYouTryOutThisBadBoy?
Else we might have another long running thread?
Decision Has Been Made.... Turbonator is Next
Most guys might mutter "never again" after the first turbo tussle.
But 3 tours of duty under the hood... in less than a year?
That's either commitment, or grounds for being committed... to an insane asylum.
I know. I know. Either way.... you'll be back!

All too convenient excuses for why you can’t see it in action. I joke my friend. Really are sorry for your troubles. You have an amazing setup and more patience (or crazy) than most any of the rest of us. Definitely way more than me! Sometimes it’s hard being the pioneer. You’ll get this sorted out and be a legend. Wait, you’re already a legend!

FordTurbonatorNot-ready-yet? 
But, when it is I want to see how it does with ZF6 and 238/100’s.
Curious if they are having similar failures on the Cummins applications???

We just had lunch and spent the afternoon with Leonard (FordTruckNoob) and I can vouch that his truck is insane and a raging bull just barely being held back.

Up in the northeast, Rust is used as glue to Bond everything together.
And when the rust has enough meals with your body, it falls off.
Unfortunately, so does your frame.
