And you came here to learn about Ford trucks?
Well, you've come to the right place, because we don't usually get this carried away with obscure stuff like this, and REALLY try to stay on-topic.
You'll learn a LOT here, especially about your PowerStroke.
But sometimes..........

That's pretty much considered the "mimimum" gauge package for any truck with a high power chip or tuner installed.

This is getting out of hand.
On another note, I wonder if the wheel in the pilot house of the Forrestal has a **** on it. I would imagine you would have to spin that thing about 340 times to get it to turn like that. Great photo.
Another note: I wonder if I could get one of those steam catapults installed in my driveway to shoot me up the on-ramp in the morning. I would have to rotate my house 180 degrees, otherwise it would catapult me into - or - through the livingroom across the street.
AND that would be an African Swallow. Gripping the coconut by the husk, not slung betwixt two birds.
I realize I contribute to sillyness.
