Thumbs up Found a couple trucks

I'll be getting a '93 F-350 4x4 dually with worn out 7.3 IDI. I do have pics, but I'm at work and they're at home. I'll try to get them uploaded in the next couple days. There was a '51-2 M3 and several other gems.
Anyway, I should be able to get my 4x4 conversion done by fall at least. I'll keep you posted.

More parts is always great news!
Hopefully we can meet up at Yorkton next year for a first hand look.

Saw a mid 90s F350 Crew PStroke, auto, 4x4 on the way back into town today, sitting in a dealers lot. White, blacked out windows, holes in the bed from a 5th wheel, clean and straight! Had a little sticker from a Florida dealer. Going to head back and take a closer look tomorrow after work if it isn't raining too hard. May have to put the 78 up for sale quickly and soon!

On the way back from Raddisson there was 3 fairly new PSD`s with Florida plates pulling new 30 ft 5th wheel campers.
The lead one was doing between 75 and 80 mph all the way to Saskatoon! Be sure not to buy that one Bouts................

I think that`s a pretty big, long and hi load with lots of wind resistance so there must be some pretty good power there!

Just like these trucks run real nice empty at 120 or 125, the same holds true for towing if the roads are smooth. It doesnt seem to take much more power to pull fast but the fuel consumption shows differently!

Mine seems to purr nicely at 120-140, no detector so I`ve never tried it any faster in case of radar.

my new one enjoys 125 for some reason... it feels really comfortable there, but i like my 105 for economical reasons...

Mine really like's 120 - 130 but it gets real tough on fuel at that speed. I'm like Sherm, if I can keep it at 105 I can get 24-25mpg. At 130 it is about 17-18.

Mine is the same as your guys's too. It really likes 130, but best economy is around 100.
