    Who's smarter?

    I couldn’t agree more! That’s why I drive old junk and am happy with it. On the other side of the coin, boy howdy is her F-150 ever livin’ nice. I don’t need all the doo-dads, but the seats!!! I love the seats!! Oh and how quiet it is at speed. And it’s ability to switch to NORMAL CC :rotflmao...

    To add to it, the wife’s X-2022 suburban (thank God that’s gone!!) wouldn’t shift outta P until you buckled your seat belt. cookoo What if I gotta move it 20’ in the driveway....come on GM......and yes I know there’s a work around.... And Adaptive CC.....I absolutely hate it. Sure maybe it...

Huh....did I feel dumb. Stopped worrying and let the soot plug it up. I’ll worry again when the exhaust drags down the...

    Someone go get it!!!

    @Black dawg thanks!! He wants to see some photos of my burb. When I deliver on those I will ask for more photos of his. Although I’m not sold I’m going to trade. Will only do it straight across, not adding money on my end. But my burb can haul my family comfortably at 80 mph and we have a...

    Spoke with him, real nice fellow. Bought it from an ex Ford mechanic that worked at Glenwood Ford. That Ford mechanic did all the swapping, he would see it run around ans then bought it off the estate. Put new ZD-9’s from Napa in. Dana 44 front. Dump bed works, boards were just rotten. Big...

    Someone go get it!!!

    @Jesus Freak i completely agree. And actually write some info so I don’t have to play 20 questions. But man the 70’s Ford pickups just look so rugged and tough to me!! I’m sure it prolly has a 4-spd and 4.10’s. Wonder if it has a Dana 60. Good thing the closest 75 mph speed limit is 2.25 hours...

    Did you replace the thermostat? Maybe it’s doing a better job of keeping the engine up to temp......? I have no clue, just throwing an idea out.

    Why are you worried about Mtn passes? I would think your van with beetle in tow would be less burdensome on a trans than your MH..... I must be missing something.

    3.07 diffs & np435?

    Was just watching this, love station wagons, but noticed the build sheet at 6:56. 400 2v V-8, C6, and 2.47 rear gear!! I assume 27” tires. I think yours with 31’s, and the granny 4 would be a great all around pickup. When you starting the project?
