V-10's everywhere!!

Hey Guys,

I'm up here in Frankenmuth, MI for the long weekend with the family. My father in law has a V-10 Coachman Motorhome. We are camping in a Jellystone campground and I'll tell you what, the V-10 is alive and wll up here in MI. I'm from KY and I usually see alot of diesels..It is V-10 country out here. Our camping neighbor has a 07 King Ranch F-250 CC. It is the orange/red color. It is beautiful. I have my 02 Ex V-10 up here. As usual, it made the trip from KY to MI flawlessly. As a matter of fact, it is soooo smooth, coming down the hill into OH from KY on I-75 I got a speeding ticket..73 in a 55!! Oh well..

I love seeing this monster engine pulling TT's..It makes my heart flutter abit. My wife thinks I'm crazy, but I can hear all of the V-10's start up and I always let her know when they do!!

Have a safe and Happy labor Day weekend..

I have to agree. We just got back from a ten day trip up the Oregon coast. During walks through the campgrounds I saw three new 2008 F-series trucks. Of the three trucks two were V10s.

When I was V10less for awhile, I could always hear that sound that I came to love while stopped in traffic or in a parking lot.

My wife thinks that I'm crazy to be able to identify an engine sound. But I would point to the fender and was always proved right.

Lots of V10 trucks down here in the San Antonio area. Lots and lots of diesels too. Actually there are probably more 3/4 and 1 tons trucks around here than you'll find most anywhere. Most of the people moving here from other parts of the country are amazed at all the trucks.
