Totally unrelated, but I have a F-150 (1992 with the 302 V8 and 4x4), and its bulletproof. I max it out all the time (Last year we towed a 2ton construction trailor with it). I HIGHLY recomend Fords (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)(IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)(IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)(IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)(IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) (I want a new F-250)
Other than that the last truck was a '72 Chevy K-10 (4x4 with 350), and it pulled great, only problem was that with all the engine mods it got only 2mpg (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (I could smoke the tires @ 60mph) |
