dislike fords as much as i?
|
I love Fords more than other brands. :dance: It is very durable. However, watching savings account balances decrease could be a frustrating experience. Taking just a few extra minutes every couple of days, though, could help you save quite a bit of cash.
|
I like Lots of Brand - X Cars !!!!!! I get to work on stuff that scares most people....:)
|
Hey cescool, if you like Fords more than any other, and you post environmental, financial and political comments why are you on a MOPAR Forum?
|
For a few years as a young man, you almost could not get me to ride in a Ford. Somewhat later, I learned a few things. Since then I've owned 5 Ford Rangers. My Dart has a Versailles 9" rear axle under it. Ford "top loader" 4 speeds used to be THE transmission for Jeep swaps. It might even be a better box than an A-833

My first work truck was a 67 A100 slantie. Had two throttle positions idle and full throttle

Geez Bob, my first truck was a '68 F350 when I was 17yrs old. 200 6cyl non sync 1st gear 4spd with 4.88 axle, what a beast.

This is what happens when you convert a gas engine that ran on CNG back to running on Unleaded Gasoline.... This was fun to figure out....

After years of running on CNG "Witches is a gausses Fuel" The Plenum, intake, and runners had a very nice coat of oil that came threw the PCV valve.... When it was converted back to unleaded it washed all that residue down and varnish coated the valve stems. After it sat over night, you would go out and fire it up and it would bend every push rod in the motor....lol This truck went to 3 different shops for repair, and all of them said it needed a motor. We just pulled the heads off. took the heads apart. Cleaned everything up and put it all back together. and away it went for many more mike of great service. |
One thing in that article that was not a 100% true was the HP of the Cummins in the 2014 3500 that I just bought tonight the HP is 385 and 850ftlbs of torque. I took it for a test drive and got on it around 30 mph and spun the rear duals ( Limited Slip ) both sides.. But it only has that HP with the Aisin transmission. The exhaust brake takes a little getting use to...:yikes:...Bill But I agree I'm not a big fan of Ford either and am a 4 Mopar man now..

Dam Bill..... How much did that set you back?cash
|
Bob, with tax 62K. It started out being 68K but with rebates and Chrysler affiliates rewards. (That makes it 1% below dealer cost) and then they deduct the 3K in rebates. Its a Laramie crew...Bill

I don't really see the point in hating on a brand. I see that even cars that have a "mob mentality" like the prius, are great and functional for some people. I have learned that no cars are truely terrible and that they were all designed with a different audience in mid.:)
