Seriously. Compensating for something maybe.....

 

He's just too lazy to mod a V8 is what it is.

 

That would explain the twins! :P

 

Yeah, cuz he ain't got none himself!

 

I'm sorry but no amount of modding a gasser will give you what that diesel can do

 

Apples to oranges again I see.

If diesels are the way to go, why don't manufactures offer only diesels and tell the EPA to shove it?

 

You so sure about that?

 

Yep the Q is does it stink?

 

Good point there.

The Ford has H A R D L Y (forum blocked the word) no rust, only two on the doors the size of a finger print, otherwise absolutely no rust on it.

It's all about the area.

They are great trucks, and so are the Dodges.

Mine only has 126K, barely broke in yet. Most 460s make 300K with ease, there's one with 2 million miles out there (original FORD AUTO tranny too!), one of my friends has 390K on his 460, etc...

Btw, the 460 will beat a STOCK DuraMax hands down in fuel economy. Our friend has a 2008 DuraMax diesel, 1 ton dually. Towing 8500lbs, the DuraMax got 4-6MPG. Towing 18,000lbs with our 460 we got 6-8MPG. Probably would have gotten a little more except we were not using overdrive. On the highway without a trailer, he gets 8-9MPG, our 460 gets 12MPG, unwavering no matter how hard you are on it. However, if he modded his duramax, he'd get way better fuel economy and power than the 460 would stock. I've even got 4.56 gears on it. Lol. As far as life goes, well, might be a little competition there... I'm not bashing on your truck Jig don't get me wrong. Lol.

^This. Lol. good one merc.

 

In other news, not that anyone cares, I've started painting the other side of my bed...
