What started out as rumour seems to be coming true
Sure looks like the same thing but, I'm sure somethings different like either the head, head gasket or milling. The picture I saw was with the engine alone, no comparison and from a slight distance, 12 to 15 feet away.- Super_Duty_John

Any such thing as a "safe" chip
Yes Higgins, the old Western Diesel Tow Haul chip (80 hp) is relatively mild. I have one for sale ironically I'll let you have cheap. PM me and I'll send you the details ;)- Super_Duty_John

Very true Higgins, I've even seen picture of it and it's two turbos on top ;) No, I'm not going to reveal my source or pictures ;) I'm going to order one as soon as available. I figure I've had enough trouble with 3 6.0L's that I have a good one coming, what say you ;)- Super_Duty_John

Yes, I remember the hell they put you through Higgins. You've had a few problems with diesel engines, first the X and then the VW. Toss back a few drinks and you'll feel better in the morning.- Super_Duty_John

Blown Transmission in an E-250
They leak oil ;) JK ;) The Sprinter I drove was a cargo van and had no seats, stripped. The one with the seats is more and they were firm with the shortage of Sprinters. I wouldn't pay 29,000 for a 2004, we'll see if they deal... Update on my 2003 E-250, they are putting a rebuilt trans...- Super_Duty_John

Blown Transmission in an E-250
I test drove one last summer. It had pick up but, it was empty. I can see that 5 cylinder ******* out with any weight in it. I stopped by the Frieghtliner dealer today and they have a SWB low roof in stock, for $29,500.00 for a 2004! I thought that was high for a 2004. I'm considering it...- Super_Duty_John

Blown Transmission in an E-250
Yes, it's under warranty. Local Ford Dealer in town here is the pits and they have to work on it says Ford. It was kind of a good thing it blew up ;) it pushed my wife over to the "Maybe you were right about getting that American Spinter" side with me ;) Now I'll just have to buy one and...- Super_Duty_John

Would you haul this? Cat D-5 on a SRW Chevy
This is the gray area. The truck (or at least a 2001 F-350 Ford SRW) would be allowed 20,000# GCVW (gross combination vehicle weight) allowed by the manufacturer. That same load would be right at 21,000# for the D-5 + 4,000# for the trailer and +8,000# for the truck, weighing in at a total...- Super_Duty_John

Blown Transmission in an E-250
I've about had it with my 2003 E-250 van. It has 26,000 miles and has the fuel efficient V-6 that gets 10 miles to the gallon. ...and now, it has no reverse :puke: I'm the only driver of this van and it's never had abuse. I was backing up in the driveway and felt a slip than a bang. I...- Super_Duty_John
