Ford Vrs Toyota course

[Larry]

Is it just me or somewhere along the line did we seem to have lost track of the value of this thread???? There are sites devoted to letting people duke out whose vehicle brand of choice is better. I didn’t think this is one of them.

I thought this forum was for discussions specific to the modification and service of Hummers, GM and Ford large and mid-sized vehicles for Expedition Travel….well that is what the tread title says anyway. This thread keeps floating to the top like a stinky dead fish. Every reader is now dumber for reading at least the last 5 pages of this crap. Go to pickup.com or pirate4x4 to duke this out.

Show us your projects, your dreams, your get away rigs…regardless WHAT brand they are! We are all idea hungry here.

Someone please stop it and lock it, as the value and entertainment value is gone….long gone.

I agree, and apologize for getting into this. I'm out of this discussion.

nice truck

I agree- no more beating of the chest on this post. Nice truck by the way. Are the wheels that color oem or did you powdercoat them? i have always been partial to blackened wheels!

as for my project - well it was more of a learn as i go over the past 6+ years. i resto-modified a 1974 Early Bronco for mild off road /camping with the kids.

pics of how it looks now :

The Dodge wasn't a whole lot better either.

There are no more Dodge trucks, the management co. that took over Benz Chrysler, sold the truck line and the Ram name to Tata of India. No more Dodge Bros. Trucks. I have a good feeling about Tata though, they at least reintroduced the 12' and 14' 3500 and 4500 Cummins work trucks. Always been the best.

Bjowett and El Guapo,

You guys have great looking rigs! That Tundra is the best build I have seen yet on a late model Tundra. Love the transfercase rework. Somehow I missed that thread when you started it back in July. I wouldn’t mind building a late Tacoma but ditch the electric shift transfercase for a FJ manual shift.

El Gaupo,

Nice Bronco! That is a very rare rig in Detroit. I have a college buddy that works for Ford that has a well built red ‘75. He lived in Dearborn up until a couple years ago. He lived near Greenfield and Ford Rd. Maybe you saw it around at Woodward or Autoramma.

I served my automotive industry career bootcamp duty in Detroit as well but with GM. Lived in Rochester Hills from 1997-2001.

Those are rattle canned factory wheels... temporary until some form of beadlock finds it's way on there. Zynolyte produces great spray paint, you can get some nice results with it.

LOVE the early Bronco! They are probably one of my favorite Ford vehicles. Nice build.

Larry, diggin' the K series. Very nice.
