    Sounds like FORD’s going to offer another engine choice for the Tremor

    Your right, the 5.0 is a complex dual overhead cam engine. My vehicle at work has a 5.0 in it, cam fasers at 20k, new engine at 33, now Check engine like and engine is rattling again at 36k… I hate the 5.0.

    Sounds like FORD’s going to offer another engine choice for the Tremor

    I owned turbo diesel trucks for 20 years or so, I never had a turbo problem. My buddy has ran a ram cummins that he’s keeping “forever”, he bought it in 07, it’s an early truck with the 5.9. Still completely stock and still runs great, never had a wrench on the engine, can’t say that for the tie...

    Sounds like FORD’s going to offer another engine choice for the Tremor

    Your correct, it’s a very complex engine, also duel over head cams, cam phasers, etc. I’m at 37k on my 5.0, it’s on its second engine and second set of cams, it’s been a constant problem. My buddy that had a 2.7 f150 and now a 3.5, never had a single problem with either of those trucks. He runs...

    Ram 2500 long term reliability

    I’ve never gotten 8 mpg, fully loaded and towing.. lowest I’ve gone is around 10. My buddy has a large camper with the 7.3 gas, he sees around 10 mpg, much better than his old v10 rig. The 7.3 does surprisingly well on fuel for what it is.

    Pricing vs MSRP on Custom Order F-350 July 2022

    Some orders were cancelled if their allotment of those particular equipped trucks were built, if you were lower on the list, you lost your place. Some trucks shipped without certain portions, but you get a voucher to get them installed later.

    Pricing vs MSRP on Custom Order F-350 July 2022

    Ford closed the order books for MY 2022 in march, they are retooling for the 2023 redesign and the order books for them open up in early October possibly late September. You can’t just order a vehicle whenever you want, it depends on order banks, dealer allot,ents, etc.

    What is gained by a gas 3/4-1 ton over 1/2 ton truck?

    Your right, HD trucks simply do everything better and safer. Haul or tow a load, it will be more stable with an HD truck. HD trucks will last longer due to their heavier duty parts and you will get a better resale.

    OBS 350 as Platform?

    I worked for a guy out of high school in 1999, he had a 1995 f350 four door long bed 4x4 with the 460 he wanted to sell me for 7500. It was mint with 50k on it, and I couldn’t get a loan back then, I sure do miss that truck. It looked close to what you got.

    Baja Designs vs KC Highlites?

    I bought some BD Designs lights from 8 lug truck gear, I had them in about 1 week. I’m very impressed with them and their customer service. I’m on a few forums and I have not heard of any recent delays with BD lights. I can’t speak for the KC’S but BD has some serious quality and excellent light...
