Yeah, I didn’t care who won either way. I was just happy it was a competitive game. I hate when championship games in any sport are a blowout.
Well, except for the old Tyson fights. It was pretty amusing watching him drop other contenders as quickly as he did (as long as I wasn’t paying the pay-per-view bill).

Don’t forget Ronda Rousey. I got a pay per view…it cost me $13 / second.
 
But that sub 20 seconds 0 to 60.

Oh yeah


It does pretty good as long as you're not going through the mountains or pulling a load or going very far or very fast.

I like how long it can make a tank of fuel last. I have one that's lasted a whole year now. But once I get it running again that will probably go down.
 
One Ford is no Fords

Two Fords is one Ford

I have four Fords. Well three really. Well, two. I kind of have two Fords. Most of the time.

I should probably pull the fuel out of the tanks on the other ones before it goes bad


How long does diesel keep?

I say bolt all the ford's together side by side, only leave doors on the outer driver (driver door)and outer passenger side truck (just the passenger door)

You could have 4 drivers or even just one and move seat to seat as each truck breaks down... that way you'll keep going... well kind of lol
 
I used the 450 to bring some surface grinders down from Ohio last year. It took 16 quarts of oil to get home. Which I think is pretty good cuz that's way less oil than fuel.

We brought that Makino down from Ohio a few weeks ago. Other than some flat tires it was pretty uneventful. Other than the burnt exhaust valve. Valves? Idunno. It seems to be doing better now. Well, "Better" is probably not the right word. Less bad now.

I was thinking I just need a big car hauler trailer. But then I would need something to pull it.

I'm thinking, maybe just $20,000 more and then I'll have it.

Maybe 30?

If it's 40, I should probably stop now. Cuz I'm pretty sure it's only worth about 10.

Dollars. 10 dollars.

I'll give you 20. Twenty dollars that is. IF you pay for shipping (or drive it here yourself). 👍

I run Ford SuperDuty anti gel performance additive to mine in winter, and the owner of the shop I get service done at provides a list of places to buy fuel. He said bad fuel causes many of the issues they see, and lots of greedy folks add water to fuel to get more money. My dozer runs fine on 2 year old diesel, and many people up here have it stored much longer than that.
Sorry you are having so much trouble with your truck.
