I have no problems with you at all Matt, I understand being busy. Right now we are just coming out of a huge construction boom where I live, I build kitchen cabinets for new homes and homes that we renovate, I work alone in the shop and I was also having to install the kitchens so basically I was in the exact situation you are in, build all day install at night, so for you its your working on the trucks themselves that you also stated you are getting out of doing during the day and then doing tunes at night. I know how frustrating it is to be so busy that you can't get any sleep and are always stressed right out, you're really fortunate that people pay in advance for your service though, would really suck if you had to work your *** off then get stiffed in the end after you put as much effort into it as you do.

All of the ambulances here are duramaxes, and I see an equal amount of ford and gm trucks as well as a few dodges on construction jobs were I work. There was a crane and rigging company that had a pair of 08's with the 6.4 that the guys hated because they have each left them on the side of the road twice with less then 5000 miles on them.

Forbes, El Paso Corporation, Gulf South Pipeline, CenterPoint Energy, and about 10 others that I cannot think of all use Ford trucks. Most are diesels, better than 60% are now 6.0L. Nobody up here uses Chevys, cause they will not hold up to the oilfiled road abuse. Dodges are more common in Hot Shot services. However there are more Fords then GM's in that sector as well.

Fact (with the expection of the F450 P/U Ford is way ahead of the compition on this one) Ford F350 is rated at 18K.This is just one of the reason GM is last when it comes to ratings, this is just one onf the reason why Ford is first not last.
But this is way off track for this thread.

Did you even look at the link I posted?
Then go look at curb weight and see just how far ahead Ford is compared to the rest. Then back to the 450....compare that to the 4500 topkick. What competition?
As I look back, who brought up anything about the truck this was just the motor starting out. No?
Apparently no more dyno number or info about the latest tire roasting.
BTW I am on the other sites and have seen the replies over there too.

I Haven't see anything helpfull come from you, I have seen your little comments on other threads; it seems all you do is some is come to the FORD site and talk S#@T and say Chevy's are the world!!
Like I said I didn't come here to talk about Chev's or compare who's truck is better (I already know which one is) I am here to learn about what Matt has done to get his Tuned Dyno Numbers (as the thread says)
So if you wish to talk about how smart I am or how good your truck is I would love to meet you and figure this out one on one. If you pick me I will show you how "smart" I am if you pick my truck we will tie them up and I will tow you around until I rip your hooks off your frame your choice
go back to chevy land and stay there, if they even want you there!

Thank You! I watch this thread religiously to see when to expect "the call" from you/Matt on when I can get the programmer and pipe and have to read through a bunch of USELESS jabber on the greatness of a duramax. If I wanted info on a duramax, I would go to thier blog!

I was trying to help but no, I get bashed for talking about the duramax. If you were smart you would keep to yourself as the motor are more alike in characteristics I think then you'll ever know, even though they are quite different.
