Re: New Ford Rebates????

You should be able to buy it for 6k to 8k under MSRP. Some of the rebates will depend on what financing you choose. For instance " 4500 rebate or 0% interest". Also $1000 trade-in assistance if financed tru Ford Credit. Low ball the dealer and give him 2 or 3 days to to sweat it out. You f...

Just had to scratch the itch!

I've been looking and wishing since the new Ford Powerstroke came out. Finally couldn't stand it any longer and had to give the itch a good scratching. Sure is a nice truck. Kay says the air conditioned seats are a bit over the top but I think she is just jealous. :x :x http://i552.photobucket.com/a...

Re: New tow vehicle car carrier on the way

Looks to like a hitch would fit nicely on the roof of the gokart. You could save all those $$$ you are spending on the truck. :))

Re: Big three Diesel Shootout

Can't argue with anything you said, Mike. If I had to pick the best one out of this years models, without knowing who the manufacturers were, it would be a tough choice. However, considering where my retirement check comes from, I guess I will stick with the Ford.

Big three Diesel Shootout

Anyone thinking about getting a new TV might be find this ( http://wardsauto.com/ar/ford_power_diesel_100920/ ) article interesting. I am a total Ford man, but am extremely impressed with the new trucks from all three manufacturers. Looks to me like any of them would be a good choice.

Re: F250 questions

I have been ordering my filters from http://www.dieselfiltersonline.com . They have Motorcraft quite a lot cheaper than the dealer or you can get the Racor filters (they are the manufacturer of the Motorcraft filters) for even less.

Re: Fuel Additives

This is what I use. Diesel Kleen® +Cetane Boost® They also have one with anti-gel for use in winter if it is cold enough that you need it. It's available at a lot of the auto parts stores as well as Walmart. I use it in every time I fill up.
