Lane assist is great when it works. If the system in my F150 looses sight of the left side road stripe it will pull you into on coming traffic or the median. The adaptive cruise also is great until the car in front of you exits the highway and stops. My truck will think they are still in the...

You are talking this “Restomod” to a new level. Looks great.

Judging by the plethora of mini-D's I've been seeing around town and how many I've run into at the diesel pumps is astonishing. Folks really like diesel. Almost every owner has a new (good!) perspective on diesel. You make a good diesel engine, and people will have a totally different view on...

Sure 3rd brake light leak everyone says. On my 2013 it wasn’t. I went as far as to seal the light with silicone. On my truck it ended up being the pinch weld under the rubber trim strip.

I really love my F150 Diesel. I’m hoping that once the stupidity in the world comes to pass they will bring it back. Come the revolution when we remind the government that they work for us not the other way around…. Sorry went down that rabbit hole.

And for those wondering I’ve been in touch with a neurologist. And working out what actually happened. They say scar tissue from having the tumor removed last year is the cause. But the right meds will eliminate that episode from ever repeating it’ll be a while before I get to drive again while...

Update to the this meandering tail. The local dealership down here had an F250 with around 50k miles on it and the 6.7 power stroke. The wife almost liked it after the test drive. The truck was a power beast and in really nice condition. The price was fair so the next day we went back to...

Thanks for the kind thoughts. I’m already working with a good Doctor and have things going in the right direction. This getting old stuff sucks.

I’m sad to report that my trusted 2021 has met its end. I was driving into town and had a medical issue, lost control of the truck and went into the woods. The truck did its job protecting me from major injuries but in the end it’s not fixable. After 52695 trouble free miles my best friend of a...

Well it is a GMC they can’t carry much…

It’s a Boing approved repair

Aside from the lube and E rating tires this truck is 100% stock. I haven’t found a reason to mess with it.

3095 miles.. my last long distance adventure from cape may New Jersey to Key West Florida and back. No trailer this year so I could let the little pony sprint. Speeds below 70 she was delivering 34.8 mpg. Hand calculated. It was raining heavy our first day, all the way to Savannah Georgia...

Only issue I had with the Gates tensioner was I had to un bolt it to change the belt on my 05 Dodge. There wasn’t enough clearance to allow the belt to pass through when it was fully installed. It lasted longer than the original tensioner. And far longer than the water pumps did on that truck.

I agree I really miss the engine brake my RAM had. I’m told Green diesel has a CARB approved program to turn on the engine brake on my F150, but I’m still under warranty so it will have to wait.

Figured this would be a good time to jump in… I’ve got two fleet F350’s with the ZF10 speed transmission. Both are gas trucks. The transmission works but seems to not be set up right as the engine will wind out when trying to merge with traffic. They will drop down 2-3 gears when you encounter a...
