OK, so I sold everything...

And bought this:

1999 F250 SuperDuty with the Triton V10 6.8L Big Block with the Super Crew and Short Bed.

Before you mention it, I get 12+ MPG with spirited driving.
The front end has been rebuilt with new ball joints, U-Joints, and aftermarket Warn Stainless Hubs.

I’m still trying to figure out what gears I have, and why my 10/98 build date sucks so bad when shopping for lift kits.

I’m looking to do a 5.5" lift with 35s… cause 31s are way too small on this thing.

Comments from experience is welcome.
BTW - I’m waiting on a call for a car hauler, as well as a camper.

Nice truck, though I have my doubts about 12mpg with spirited driving. 10 if you’re lucky.

3

Actually, I have over 500 miles on it since last week, and the first tank was 11.8 and the last tank was almost 13.

The Spirited driving I’m referring to, I thought was going to produce single digit numbers.

On a truck like that, the mileage probably won’t change that much, loaded or not.

5

Yo … I have some wheels and pocket flares for sale for that truck

Oh … and you dont have a big block

7.3 super here with 30+ lbs of boost. looks like a clean truck.

Gas because it is the V10 right?

i talked with a customer about his E350 van and he said he gets around 15 in the city 17-18 highway. he also noted that you couldent even tell if there was a trailer behind him. :tup: to torque

10

why didn’t you buy a diesel?

11

i’m guessing the $$ differnce…but yeah…if I was to go big… i’d go with a turbo diesel…not the 6L ford tho…either a cummins or duramax.

12

that is :pimp:

13

That’s huuuuge

Would have bought a desiel tho, but whatever floats your boat :slight_smile:

14

id rather be cumming then stroking

15

nice truck. Looking for the same thing, but diesel…

16

Diesel would be sweet, but nice truck nonetheless.

Indeed, really nice truck. My friend has one that has like 270000 miles on it and he’s changed the suspension like, once. Rides perfect for a truck that size.

Swap motor into fox body ASAP :rofl:
