Why do you think there's a "run" on 7.3-powered SuperDutys?

I can relate to these issues as well. My brake job went from replacing one caliper, to breaking another and ending up with 4 new rotors, new pads and two new rear calipers.
A day later my starter has called it quits on me.
However, this entire situation is much better than where I was at last year about this time.
I will reference my pride thread on this forum because I love to look over it for motivation and many others on here do the same and send me PMs telling me how motivating it was for them. I blew my engine last year in a riverbed and ended up swapping it on the side of the road in a small town in Alaska. I took lots of pictures which people enjoy.

Just keep your head up! I drove my truck a whopping two hours before it's next problem came up and I grinned with pride for those two hours. I also can't complain too much since I am easily to blame for my trucks problems. From off roading to water crossings, I push and push and I always get what I demand. Every now and then she needs her time too.
