this dude definitely likes what he does, it's just too bad that he does not know what he is doing. when we first got started playing with PSDs my brother called about something and he wouldn't even talk to him unless he signed up to be a paying member of his website.
I am going to take a cheap shot, so forgive me, but here it goes anyway............If the 6.blow guys are calling him a guru, then that should tell you something

THE REST OF THE STORY

Sir make sure that you tell the folks here at FTE the whole truth BEFORE you blame me for your problems. If you check your PowerStroke Specialty receipt is says clearly that at the time of our repair that you declined to have your Oil Cooler replaced. AND if you reread the invoice from Hansen Ford in Alberta, they state clearly that the failure was due to a bad oil cooler. AND when your cooler failed you pushed the the truck with the large camper in tow. The head gaskets didn't stand a chance. I DID return your phone calls when you actually called after the fact and I DID refund some of your money. If any one is a bad guy it is Hansen Ford for charging you $6172 and not even reinstalling your ARP studs. I shake my head in disbelief.

Leave the poor guy alone. He's just trying to make a living. Big freakin deal. He made some videos and built a website trying to help / inform people. People don't agree with him. OK. So what. Sure I don't agree with everything the fella has to say. But he a right to do what he is doing. It is a free country. If you have a problem with him go to the source. All here certainly also have the right to voice their opinions also.

It doesn't surprise me the lemming (6.0) forum would like and believe everything the fella says. After all they have the almighty leading them to one cliff after another only to once again find out about gravity. But thats OK its a free country.

BShelp I mean pshelp your reputation precedes you and the post about the 6.0 doesn't change your reputation here. Nor does your defense of the situation. While what you said in your defense is probably true (I have dealt with such customers) it is still a fact that your youtube videos and web site are full of senseless babel and false information mixed with a little bit of correct info. I have never told a member this before and probably never will again but, feel free to close your account and don't come back unless you are willing to really contribute to the PSD Community.

In my opinion its not ok. You should really research and be willing to back up what you're telling people before you go and charge them. If I was paying money every month just to learn about my truck and engine and find out later alot of it was false I would not be happy. Im just glad I found this site before I found his videos. I bought my first psd 6 years ago I was 16 years old and knew absolutely nothing about it and wanted to learn as much as possible so I could work on it myself. I wouldn't know what I do without the awesome guys on this site oh and by the way its free! I really do have to renew my supporter membership
