Me and "Bull"

Ive been riding in my"Bulltruck" for 10 years now and 200000 miles. Alot of work has been done out that ole 250. So now its time for more than just regluar maintance and im glad Ive found some other people that are Ford fans like the boys and I. we are working on a 2001 ranger and a 1990 Lariat. Its intweresting and better than watching all the Houston teams lose at thier ball playing. Hope to talk up a few of you on the streams...Happy Holidays to all

The Wealth Of Knowledge Here.....

Well howdy from the soggy Oregon Coast. I've been lurking here and tapping FTE's vast ocean of knowledge and experience for a few months. Seems like a pretty good group!Maybe I can get a few issues sorted out with my 2001 F350 7.3.... Thanks, Jim

New to the Forum AND Ford (soon)

Hi all, I'm new here and am looking to "upgrade" perhaps as it were. Life long Chevy guy, and now due to issues that Chevy simply doesn't want to deal with, I'm moving on. I know what I want, but I need to know which engines, etc. that I should be looking for. So, either an F250 or 350. And I will not consider a gasoline engine at this point. I know too many buddies who own Diesels (mostly Ford) and they are more than excited to tell how great they are. Unfortunately, I don't have $50K to shell out for a brand new one, so I've been considering used with decent mileage (up to 75K). So I look forward to getting some feeback on what the Ford "experts" think are the better engine, tranny, etc. options.

Hello.

Checking in for New Member. I've got a 2000 SuperDuty, 5.4, 4x4 that is in need of a decent upgrade. I'm tired of getting stuck because of ground clearance issues or because this thing's got a junk 4x4 system and I'm hitting up this site for some good 'ol knowledge and How-To's.

New to me 2008, F-450

Picked up my new 2008 F-450 with only 38,000 on the OD. Super clean inside and out, and motor bay. Drives like a dream! This King Ranch with all the options is great. Now I can start trying out everyone's mods and changes to make this the best truck ever. Sure beats my old F-150.

New here, just picked up a 99 F350 DRW CC 4x4 7.3 6spd with 212,000 on the clock.

Its in the shop, lots of little things, PO didnt maintain it too well. Runs good though.

I picked this ride up for a tow rig for my M1009.

And my father is a huge Ford guy, and he is a mechanic. I asked him what to get for the cash I had, and this is the best he said I could do in my price range.

-Doc

Hi to you all (not y'all). Just became a new member. I have my new F-350 S/C 4x2 gasser coming in next week if it gets a short time in the yard where the train unloads and the mobile parking lots load. I have the rail car number and it was more than half way from Kentucky to New Jersey as of Friday morning. Looking forward to it's arrival! Bob
