Bubba was marking out to it yesterday. :) mochinist 04-04-2007, 04:11 PM Wish I had a reason(and the cash) to get one NAMELESS1 04-04-2007, 04:27 PM It's not a "twin turbo" they are inline..One feeds the second..Helps with turbo lag..Dealt with alot of these set ups back when I used to service generators..

Or if it's still a loud bitch like the cummins. I'm interested in the F250 model but I hate those ugly fuckin fender vents!! FTEnelson 04-04-2007, 07:22 PM :bigup: just ordered an 08 350 with the 6.4 test drove it quite as all hell, more power then im gunna know what to do with, and QUICK i was suprised with the twin turbo figured there would be mean turbo lag but it was awesome. actually took it for a day(i know the guy) and it gets killer fuel mileage got 22mpg around town and like 25 on the highway. so impressed i just spennt 45g's to have one built with a utility body and a 9 foot blade NAMELESS1 04-04-2007, 07:34 PM Back to my above post..They are sequential turbo's....NOT TWIN TURBO'S...As maller turbo feeds a larger turbo..Doing this cuts waay down on turbo lag like you experienced.. ImBooper 04-04-2007, 07:36 PM I could be wrong but arent they recalling all the diesels for some problem with the new cats burning up?? FTEnelson 04-04-2007, 07:38 PM I could be wrong but arent they recalling all the diesels for some problem with the new cats burning up?? no they were going to recall the new 6.4's becasue of a lawsuit with internatinol over the old 6.0l which was a PEICE OF SHIT FTEnelson 04-04-2007, 07:38 PM Back to my above post..They are sequential turbo's....NOT TWIN TURBO'S...As maller turbo feeds a larger turbo..Doing this cuts waay down on turbo lag like you experienced.. yea i thought it was a twin turbo but its a low pressure feeding a high pressure i was mistaken when i test drove it NAMELESS1 04-04-2007, 07:41 PM http://www.motortrend.com/roadtests/trucks/112_0704_2008_ford_super_duty Jibawak 04-05-2007, 12:11 AM More or less curious if they quieted down their deisel to be similar to the whisper quiet Duramax.

The Dodge with the Cummins engine is definately an outstanding motor. But the fact is if you trade in a Ford or Chevy, your gonna get at least 5g more than if you were trading in a comparable Dodge. They really have horse shit resale, I don't know why, they just do......................those are the facts. Is that new 6.4 motor a Cat engine? I did not know that. the b-man 04-05-2007, 07:54 AM http://i114.photobucket.com/albums/n277/b-man_70/fordandafter.jpg Park Style 04-05-2007, 02:28 PM The Dodge with the Cummins engine is definately an outstanding motor.

Thank You ;) JBEEZEE 04-05-2007, 04:45 PM Fuck a Ford! Bubba needs to check out the Chevy HD 3500, it crushes all! chucksciano 04-05-2007, 05:22 PM Fuck Fords they suck ass I am with JBEEZEE check out the Chevy 3500 HD CC 4X4 Diesel now that is a bad ass mochine. Late, Chuck trainwrecker22 04-05-2007, 05:55 PM Is that new 6.4 motor a Cat engine? I did not know that. [/B][/QUOTE] as far as i knew cat has no planes on putting a engine in a 4 wheeler or a pickem up truck because when you do it opens up a whole can of worms Park Style 04-06-2007, 01:53 AM jbeezee and chucksciano im a a chevy boy/man at heart... but unless chevy goes outside the whole duramax rhelm.... IMO may i stress IMO dodge, less the resale value will over power... ford went to international... dodge went to cummins... chevy has been offered CAT... but tries to stay inhouse... thats not gonna work if they came out with a cat chevy :bowdown: and might i also add... all i own is chevys... and i got 2 Major Player 04-06-2007, 07:23 AM I am not a huge fan of diesels since the trannys blow out way before the engine does. We have a 94 chevy dually 4x4 350. Plus some real old duallys we haven't quite junked yet. Plus a '98 1 ton regular cab. We use them to pull our cattle trailers around plus other things on a fifth wheel. An F250 would be sufficient for Bubba to pull a 20 foot trailer on a fifth wheel- which is what I hope Bubba bought instead of a pull type trailer since they are pieces of shit since they get whipping around when you go too fast. I saw an F450 pulling a 40 foot cattle trailer last winter, so I'd like to have one if I could afford a good trailer to pull behind it. perryman94 04-06-2007, 08:15 AM Nice love-sponged version! kmkomr 04-06-2007, 08:28 AM Fuck Fords they suck ass I am with JBEEZEE check out the Chevy 3500 HD CC 4X4 Diesel now that is a bad ass mochine. Late, Chuck Dude, I love ya in a non-faggot way and all, but my truck would kick the shit out of that piece of shit in a pull-off. I'd rip the frame right off it! I'm trying to paste a picture in here of it, but I'm too much of a mult donkey ass to figure it out.....damn it! Anyway, it's a bad ass 7.3L powerstroke diesel F250. Absolute bad ass truck. Smashes all GM and Chevy products. mute 04-06-2007, 08:39 AM you can order the new 450 ford with a cummins or a cat i love my 06 2500 4x4 cummins dodge save your money buy a dodge bubba your supposed to be a mopar guy sodapop 04-06-2007, 01:06 PM http://a332.g.akamai.net/f/332/936/12h/www.edmunds.com/pictures/VEHICLE/2008/Ford/2008.ford.f-350%20super%20duty.20110204-396x249.jpg thats the base model is this why we have to pay for the dogtags now,come on BUBBA we already pay for everything else already... :bigdown: bm311x 04-06-2007, 02:04 PM Waste of money, his F150 would do the same job. It's not like he needs any of that extra power or any of that shit bubbad45 04-06-2007, 04:20 PM i drove one and same as last year piece of shit i wouldent have a ford shoved up my ass!my brother hauls hot shot and blew up his power joke up twice in 30,000 miles.But then again my duramax has pulled him out of a pinch more than once.but like all the makes there are good ones and there are bad ones :D Major Player 04-06-2007, 10:07 PM Waste of money, his F150 would do the same job. It's not like he needs any of that extra power or any of that shit Although he won't have the 20 foot trailer completely loaded like I would with cattle, a 3/4 ton is a much better choice to pull a trailer of that size down the highway. Plus if he puts a fifth wheel on his F-150 that will decrease the value of it on a trade in. NAMELESS1 04-07-2007, 07:27 AM your supposed to be a mopar guy Guess he smartened up.. :D FTEnelson 04-07-2007, 08:27 AM jbeezee and chucksciano im a a chevy boy/man at heart... but unless chevy goes outside the whole duramax rhelm.... IMO may i stress IMO dodge, less the resale value will over power... ford went to international... dodge went to cummins... chevy has been offered CAT... but tries to stay inhouse... thats not gonna work if they came out with a cat chevy :bowdown: and might i also add... all i own is chevys... and i got 2 carrection for ya haus, ford has been with internatiol since 83 when the 7.3l came out, theve always used internatinol, the 6.0l was originally built and designed by internatinol but ford built them, hance all the problems, internatinol has always built a great motor, ive got an 88 f-550 superduty with a 7.3l non turbo. the motor has well over 700 thousand miles and just wont quit. FTEnelson 04-07-2007, 08:30 AM you can order the new 450 ford with a cummins or a cat i love my 06 2500 4x4 cummins dodge save your money buy a dodge bubba your supposed to be a mopar guy actually you cant get a cummins or a cat in the new 450's youve got 3 motor choice in the f-250-f-550 5.4l gas 6.8l v-10 gas and the 6.4l in the f-650 to f-800 you can get a cat c13 in it FTEnelson 04-07-2007, 08:37 AM Dude, I love ya in a non-faggot way and all, but my truck would kick the shit out of that piece of shit in a pull-off.

I didnt know you could pull that kind of mileage out of one of those - I used to have a 72 f250 with a 390 in it, it got about 11 miles per gallon after I put a pertronix ignition kit on it. I wonder how it would work w biodiesel? ImBooper 04-07-2007, 04:11 PM Im in a Dodge now but my last truck was a 7.3 and you guys are spot on that engine just wouldn't die!!!! The body rusted up around it (Canadian salt winters) but she'd haul any and everything except fat chicks. :bw: KingDiamonds 04-07-2007, 04:40 PM Im in a Dodge now but my last truck was a 7.3 and you guys are spot on that engine just wouldn't die!!!!

It's not like he needs any of that extra power or any of that shit Pulling a trailer with all the shit that Lasker mentioned in it would toss the 150 around too much and you wouldn't feel very comfortable taking corners at higher speeds, you gotta figure he probably drives his vehicles like he stole them ImBooper 04-08-2007, 01:22 PM the one ive got still is leaking every liquid it can from everywhere but ive never lost compression, only thing that kills it is winter lol LOL! Yep you'll never find a Ford with a rusty frame cuz they're soaked in power steering fluid!!! :bl: Briles 04-08-2007, 01:37 PM I'm leaning towards a Chevy Duramax. They are a little less loud. And they are mated with an Allison transmission. I have not heard anything bad about the last few years of Duramax production. The trannies are supposed to be the best available. :dontknow: Anybody like that fucking fender vent on the new Ford? It may sound silly, but that ugly fucking fender vent is a deal breaker for me. :mad: osufredfan 04-09-2007, 05:16 PM FORD? :ba: wujekcity 04-09-2007, 06:19 PM did he order his? |
