    New Truck

    I like my Cab with the 4 doors and room. I have an 8' bed. The truck has 3500 bucks in tires and rime. I did a leveling kit. Sometimes I am too old and tired to get up and in it! I like to watch my wife struggle getting in it. It is good exercise for her!!! I went and test drove a Dodge 3500...

    New Truck

    Thank you Scott. I love this truck but I got a little scared when I saw the white spray under me hood! I will take it and have it gone over and then find just what is wrong. Then find how much it will cost.

    New Truck

    Now my antifreeze is spitting out of the degas bottle. EGR is dry and oil is ok. Something has happened now and I just do not know if it would be better to fix it or just dump it now.

    aFe intake

    This has been the first time I have ever obtained positive results with an upgrade. I purchased an exhaust for my old F250 it took away the bottom end and my MPG went down. I purchased a chip for the truck NOTHING AT ALL! I called and they told me to send it back and for $100 they will put a...

    aFe intake

    I will keep a eye on that! The stock filter had 60,000 miles on it and it was not dirty. The mfg recommends cleaning it between 30,000 and 50,000 miles. I will clean it at 20,000 even if it is still clean. With the history of a 6.0 I am more worried about the head gaskets and coolers.

    Truck stop fueling rules

    I drove heavy equipment for over 20 years and now I an semi retired. My F350 is the biggest truck I will drive for as long as I live. I still feel odd getting fuel in my pick up. The window washer they have is nice! It can reach the middle and top of my truck window. I found this out after I...

    New Truck

    I am looking to replace my 2005 F350 Diesel. The truck is the best I have ever owned but the motor is killing me. I am looking to purchase a 2011 Dodge 3500. Can anyone please tell me is the auto trans is as good as a stick shift?

    Truck stop fueling rules

    I was thinking about replacing my 2005 F350 Diesel and get a Gasser but I have been so spoiled by pulling my truck and 5 Th wheel in to a truck stop to fill up. When I have to stop at the gas station the little self centered cars and people leave there there car at the pump go inside get food...
