Ford tailpipe flame video

The new Ford Superduty's have a problem with the new emissions! Ford has already recalled 37,000 of them.

Here is the video.

I wonder if that isn't an older truck set up with some sort of flame system ... When the camera paned up a little I didn't see the vent things on the front fenders..

Just ownder if that is an 08??

I hope someone is operating a jackhammer out of view of the camera.

There's no mistaking that for an 08. That is freaking nasty. If my truck did that I'd be scared to death that it's about to blow up on me.

That is beyond belief. It just makes no sense to how that could be let out into the public.

Yep, I paused the video just at the right time to see the vents on the front fender...
dayum, I wouldn't want that to happen driving out in a dry corn or wheat field!

Sounds like an old 'Yota with a rod knocking...

Why are loyalists so stubborn?
