Finally got some pictures of my truck

lets see some of your guys pictures. i finally figured out how to work the digital camera but i dont know how to put them in a post so you will have to check out my gallery and dont pay attention to the salt. its impossible to keep clean right now. i got the truck for 10K back in october with 190,000 miles on it. it is the truck ive always wanted except its a short box and i wish it was a long box. the only thing ive had to do to it was replace the brakes. of course it being completley stock diddnt last long once i found this site. and i have no money but am planning future mods. its leaking oil from the bellhousing but i dont have time to trace it with high school work and sports so any ideas on what it could be would be appreciated. my dad isnt too happy about oil all over the driveway. thanks this site is the best

Justin, what resolution did you take your pictures at with your camera? I would like to past some pics to but didn't know how much resolution to use.
Only 10K!!!! That is unheard of in my area for any powerstroke regardless of the mileage and the Lariat on top.

i dont know the resolution. i took them and just uploaded them from the camera. it took me a while to figure out too. i just went to create gallery under user cp and at the bottom it says pictures and browse. it was easy once i figured out how to do it

yes it is easy to do once you get a hang of it. that is a nice truck. it looks to be in good condition. is that a slash cut tip?

its in good condition. just a few dents but i gues that can be expected with that many miles. it looks much better without the salt on it. no the tip is straight but the way the exhaust angles toward the ground it looks angled. i dont know why it is like that because if i rotate it up to make it more level the tip will hit the fender

Nice truck, Muktown. Your camera probably has a way to shoot different resolution or size pics, if you play around with the settings.

Here are some pics of mine: http://community.webshots.com/user/ryaneverk2

I just bought a digital camera, myself, and have only been able to take a few pics of the truck so far.

Kris, I was wondering about the tip, too. On my 2000, the tip of the exhaust pipe is slashed cut, or at a 45* angle, angled "down" if you know what I mean. Then I see on his 2000 that it looks to be cut at a 90* angle, or just a straight cut. I wonder why some trucks will have different exhaust pipe tips than others... Mine is just the stock exhaust (straight piped, of course ).

edit: here's a pic where you can see the slash cut exhaust tip: https://www.ford-trucks.com/lc/lc.ph...r%2Fryaneverk2

Muktown, yours is stock as well, right? I wonder why two 2000 M.Y. trucks would have different tips.

Ah, so that explains it. I guess our stocks are slash-cut, then... didn't realize you had an MBRP. Thanks for the compliment, btw.

Oh, what's the deal with the salt? Do they salt the roads that much all winter?? What a pain to keep your truck clean of it, I bet.

it snows a lot around here so the roads are pretty much salted all winter long. i dont even bother washing it because it will look like it did before i washed it in ten minutes of driving. and it doesnt help that the garden hose is frozen. when it warms up and i can clean it i will get some more pics

It's this white stuff that falls and covers everything when you don't want it to. Doesn't come when you do want it to and invariably cause mass hysteria anywhere south of Delaware. It is fun to drive in though.
