Just curious how much meat you try to get during hunting season for the year. My goal is 200 lbs of venison to get me through, just curious for comparable. What did you shoot the moose with? My uncle lived near Kendra Ontario and when they still had moose (most are gone due to cwd and some rusty...

It needs gas to run and to get into shipping so it’s not that weird. The dealer cannot program for 37 inch tires, look at the AEV pro cal or snap what ever it’s called. You can set the TPMS lower also.

It means it comes with 5gallons of gas. You’ll be ok with the 4:10’s, ideally 4:56.

My work truck (17 f150 police responder) was at the dealer getting some repairs done and the tech asked how I liked the auto stop start on a police vehicle. I told him it was very annoying and has caused me issues. He said he can disable it with a “jumper wire”, I had him do it, it took him 10...

The 17 f150 5.0 I have for work has the auto stop start.

I think you will be fine with 3:73’s… the TFL truck “super tremor” had 3:73 gears, 37 inch tires and it did fine in Colorado with an in bed camper. I got to admit, I prefer my 7.3 with 4:30 gears, tons of power and always in the right rpm range.

I’ve heard a stock super duty (non tremor) with a 7.3 and 3:73 gear set will get about 2 mpg better, mostly has to do with the truck sitting lower, smaller road tires, large front bumper spoiler and some has to do with the gear set. I can’t verify this, but I’ve been told this from several super...

My buddy had something similar he paid 15k for. If you find someone to pay 30k, they are an idiot with too much money.

Good review of the ford, after owning both the ram cab is quieter and the ford has allot more room, sit in the back seat of both you’ll notice it. The 10 speed and 4:30 gears is the best option for putting the power to the ground with the 7.3, it’s just a blast to drive and never hunts for gears.

FYI I have 15k on my 7.3 tremor, with 4:30 gears, 35 inch tires, a stock 2 inch lift (17 to19 super duty suspension), all are stock components that come on the tremor package with the cut air damn I am setting 14 mpg on the highway. I don’t think this is bad considering what it is, if you want...

He will be very happy with that set up, it has a ton of power for a gasser.

7.3?

Don Hume holsters a fair, I remember we got a contract and bought them for a couple years, they didn’t hold up like safari land so we switched back. Their Off duty holsters were decent, but again didn’t hold up well long term.

What are your needs? As a person that carries a pistol on his hip every day for the last 20 years I can tell you if I can get weight off my hips I take every opertunity. For work we use safari land in black leather basket weave. I still have the same low ride level one holster for the 1911 I...

Your right, the early 2000’s had some very good reliable vehicles. My buddies 03 2500 hd with the 6.0 is still running perfect, I know a few people that have 7.3 diesel ford trucks, all stilling running great.

If looks are not your concern get the ranch hand with the full guard and screen, I had one on my 06 ram, they are very very strong.

Thanks! I was close 460 lb.ft. i should have kept that truck, ran great and got excellent fuel economy.

my first cummins was a low output 03 with I think around 470 ft and it towed and hauled everything just fine.

I’m starting to see more gas drw ford trucks now that the 7.3 is out. The 7.3 is proving itself to fill a nitch for people that tow and haul allot but want simplicity and reliability. Blue bird school busses now come with a 7.3 in either gas or propane, my buddies new motor home has a 7.3. With...

I’ve never seen a grill guard actually really protect much of anything, all I have seen fold in and cause a ton of damage during a strike. I can tell you, be careful the front bumper actually hangs kinda low and the trucks being so big has a few blind spots up front. I went over a small rock and...
