One new, one alive, and one dead
As Moe reminded me I have not been online here for awhile. If you don't have me on facebook here are some updates to my Ford trucks that have happen
First of all the dead... my 05 king ranch was written off in April
I haven't bought a replacement yet instead I started a skidsteer business which uses this Ford L9000, I bought a 93 Dodge cummins to drive in meantime
Last of all good news my 1949 Mercury finally got back on the road this year

Soory to hear about your accident last April, hope nobody was seriously injured. Nice tandem dump, I love those truck's. We're also driving a Dodge in the interim, after my wife's accident last wednesday. The Merc is cherry, LOVE IT. Have a Merry Chreistmas.

Hopefully everyone was alright SnowKing!! Hopefully you can find a replacement soon!!
Nothing that old Dodge cant do that the SD couldn't, minus the comforts.
That is a sweet sweet Merc you have there!!!!

The last dodge truck I saw like that was on a dyno locally here.
600HP with 1024Tq.
Guy said it was his daily driver, but i've never seen it.
Usually the power,he said, was alot higher but he was having a problem with something and down tuned it. Crazy power!! Should be a fun Play truck Snow

Nice, my Ram is pretty gutless haha. Its got the 318 magnum, a 5 speed manual with 3.55 gears and about 350-360k km on it all original as far as I know. In 5th gear it has hard time holding highway speed, even with my foot in the floor boards, unless the ground is completely flat or going down hill lol, so really I only have 4 useable gears... Its been sitting for the past few years and I keep wanting to fix it up and get it going again but every time I get spare money I spend it on my new truck 
lol.
lol.
