Hello fte

I'm new to the diesel game, in the last few years, I have learned so much. I have a 2011 F 350crew cab, 4x2, 6.7 liter, 200k miles. I bought this truck at an auction. This truck is so much more complicated than my other.

Truck i just bought

Talking Introduction

Hello, just a new owner of a 2009 King Ranch f350 diesel 6.4. Bought it 'As-Is' and ended up paying lots of money for repairs. New gaskets and seals from front of engine all the way to end of transmission including twin turbo. Two new batteries. New moon roof rack or track. Now I hope all is good. I'm just happy to have this ford truck, I owned a 67' ford bronco long time ago and I missed ford! I am in Florida and am seeking to delete EGR and DPF and get new 5" pipe, tuner and cold air intake for lots more power and better gas mileage.

Hello, My name is Tim. I am a new member and just purchased a 1979 F250 4x4. I am having the 351M, transmission and transfer case rebuilt. I am looking for Tires and wheels. the ones I have on it came off of a trailer. I am hoping it will be a good truck for me and my family to have fun and play around in! also if anyone knows where I can find a radiator shroud I would be very appreciative, I can't find one anywhere! Thanks

Newest of the FNG...for now

Good EARLY morning FTE universe! Recently purchased a 2019 F250 XLT SDCC 6.2L 4x4. Loving this truck so far! G
Recieved this great truck after my 2018 F150 CCSB 4x4 3.5EB started making a rattle on start up...from 18200 mi all the way to 21600 mi. Dealership gave me a GENEROUS trade in value! I also have a 1970 F100 RCLB with a personal built 351 W bored .040 over, long-time headers, true dials and a built C6 and 9"rear. Great to meet all of you!

New to FTE

Hello to all FTE!
Im Cameron. been looking around at many ford truck Forums, the other day I was reading on one via web search, and the guy was getting so much help from all the members. haven't really seen that all that much on other sites. Well it was FTE. And here I am. I wanna be a part of something like that.
my first ford was and still is a 93 ford f250 xlt 7.3 idi 4x4. 5speed with only 175,000 miles bone stock, have done some work but no mods.
And i just picked up a 2000 ford f350 super duty short bed 7.3 powerstroke. with 275,000 miles. With a few mods as it came with the truck. I installed a php hydra chip added the 6637 filter and plan on the muffler delete.
don't think I will do much more then that. everything I put in the truck is money in the bank, the truck was FREE!!!!!! BOOM BABY!!!! lol.

Thanks for the welcome - I am an old ford man. ‘28, ‘39, ‘40 coupe (got a lot of tickets with this one), ‘55, and a whole bunch of station wagons. Now have 2003 Ranger and 1995 Explorer. Joining hoping to get some lowdown on electric conversion. I’m pretty much decided to go with EV West but the $17,000 is going to be a hard road to go for me so I’ll be looking for a lot of help ... anyone do it yet? I would appreciate some ideas, frank.

1967 Bronco Half Cab handed down

Hello,

I am a new member and came to this forum for some advice.

My uncle inherited a 67 Bronco Half Cab from my grandpa about 15 years ago. Before my Grandpa dies he completely disassembled the Bronco in preparation for a restore. The Bronco is still in pieces. Its stored inside which is good. I am trying to buy it from my uncle and he asked my to make an offer. I am seeking advice on its value. The body is pretty straight but will need a new floor pan and rocker panels. The engine and transmission are no good. I am hoping that you can help or lead me to someone who can. I would really like to get this thing back up and running in memory of my Grandpa Buddy.
