    Review and Test drive of the New 2011 Ford Superduty

    They are nice looking trucks. There is one at a local dealership that stickers at $62k. :eek: For that much money I would expect the bed to be filled with hookers and blow.

    Remington Mud Brutes

    It sounds like you picked a good time to replace tires. I had a set of Mud Brutes nearly 30 years ago on a '79 F350. They were decent tires, but I did not plow or tow heavy with them.

    Am i the only one?

    I was a minimalist camper until I got married. Sleeping in a Winnebago hooked up at an RV camp is my wife's idea of "roughing it." The entire side of her family is that way. I took my son and the Boy Scouts on several survival camps a few years ago. I hope that they all hold on to those...

    CEL Help On Trailblazer ASAP.

    The C0495 code indicatres "EVO tracking error." I do not know that that means, but it sounds steering related. http://www.brakeandfrontend.com/Article/38764/A_Brief_Hi.aspx

    Tape that sticks to interior plastic?

    The post office has free rolls of USPS packing tape that should do the trick. As an added bonus, it looks really redneck.

    exhaust plan....

    If you are going to add a tune, don't forget gauges. And if you are going to add a tune and gauges, then you will want an intake. And you will get the most out of an intake with at least a 4" exhaust... So how fast the money burns up? :)

    exhaust plan....

    If you intend to keep your truck otherwise stock, and are not looking to lower EGTs, then a 3.5" straight pipe will sound better and breathe a little better than stock.

    Welcome. I have a daughter in Utah, but she is 'way down at the other end of the state.

    Fuel consumption?

    If each injector uses 8.7 cubic millimeters (mm3) of diesel per revolution (and I am making an edjumacated guess): 8.7mm3 per injector x 4 injectors firing per revolution = 34.8mm3 per revolution x 650 rpm idle = 22,620mm3 per minute x 60 minutes = 1,357,200mm3 per hour, or .358...

    I saw one today...

    I saw one this afternoon as well, but it was headed in the opposite direction and I did not get a good look.

    1200 miles a few times, back when the speed limit was 55.

    IronBulls Crappy Bumper and Service From Business Owner

    I get it. They use that rattle can covering to hide their booger welds. Nice.

    4/25/10 GM announces that they have paid back the loan.

    An absolute sham and shell game. "Paying back" the alleged loan with additional bailout funding from the .gov is a load of crap.

    po299

    Also, check your air intake and make sure that everything is snug, with no leaks. That 0299 is an underboost code, and could be caused by the MAF sensor, the EGR popping open (or being crudded up), and/or a leak in the air intake.

    Has your EGR been blocked?

    4/18/10 Whats your favorite, current, TV show?

    Pawn Stars. The old man cracks me up, but "big dumbass" or whatever the grandson's name is needs to be slapped.

    Dealer said Wheel Hub Assemblies

    You came out pretty well. The hubs would have needed replacing soon. I just had mine replaced this week at 85k.
