I love my truck!

[tech10002]

This thread is completely pointless. I just thought I'd share. As a fairly new Super Duty owner, I just never realized how nice these things are. Today I drove my 95 F150 Supercab instead of my 250 just to charge the battery and keep the seals lubed since it has been sitting parked for a couple months, and I was absolutely miserable. I felt like I was in a Ranger. LOL

I drive 500-1000 miles a week for work, and I actually look forward to getting a service call finished, starting up the old Powerstroke, and driving to the next jobsite. I used to dread all the driving. I didn't realize until now what the difference really is. I wish I would have bought a Super Duty years ago.

Some of you guys might remember when I first posted in here asking 1000 questions and was cross shopping the 07 Tundra. I can't imagine if I would have bought one of those things. I'll take my used Ford over that new foreign job any day of the century. 1000 thanks for talking me out of the Toyota.

Side note: Anybody want to buy an F-150? LOL

Hold on to that F150. Rumors are flyin' about a V6 turbo-diesel in development for the new F150. I have a '93 4x4 F150 (4.9L... Tough little gas guzzler!!). I'm tossin' around the idea of swapping that new V6 diesel into it for my next project.

It would be allot easier and cheaper to put a 12V cummins in it. + the cummins would probly get beter fuel milage, will def be easier to install and modify, not to mention you dont have to worry about all the emisions cr@p thats going to be on the new motor not to mention all the bugs that will have to get worked out of it like all the other new diesels.

I was tryin' to avoid intermixing breeds here, but the Cummins swap sounds credible. Have many people done it? Are there sufficient conversion parts/kits available for that?
