He got a 86 F250 4x4 6.9L IDI sunday. I am not bashing it....MUCH! I can count the number of rust spots on 2 hands. VERY repairable. Red/White/Red is the color. Since I got a diesel he wanted one. Now he has one and is looking to add twin turbos, 5" turn-outs, turn the pump up, getting better head-studs, newer headgaskets that can take some boost, I am talking him into guages.

The truck had a new C6 auto tranny put in 11,000 miles ago. New tires (255/80/R16) with some very nice directional wheels. Only 140,xxx miles on it and he paid $1100 for it

Now he is talking me into hooking up to him.

those were pretty good trucks not sure on moding but pretty good ranch trucks

 

You could never beat him. Its simple math. You have 6 cyl and he has a V8.

 

NO! YOU have that wrong. The FORD will beat ANY OLE DODGE any day! Man, how many time do I have to beat that into peoples skulls? After it has been jack-hammered in mine.

Those trucks are very reliable if you leave them alone.

 

yeah, I know of one that has been a guy's tree service truck for at least 13 years, and he has never had any troubles with it and never had to do any major repairs to it. It is not a sled pulling monster though. Just a good pickup.
