When Disney builds Mickey's Backyard Massage Parlor and Casino I will be a very rich man. You losers better start kissing up to me now.
This would bring an entirely new meaning to character meet and greets....

If its just leveling the rear I wouldn't think it would cause any major problems.

Third....what is it about that Pocahontas that seems so familiar? Her face looks more like some college girl selfie in Instagram than a Native American princess.
And this is less real than a mouse suit? :lmao1:

I don't know how I've missed this thread....spend a lot of enjoyable time going thru this and watching your youtube videos. What a project!!! FANTASTIC!

it's a crapshoot - if you get a ram (and stay up on maintenance in your front end!!) you may never have a problem. If it starts the death wobble...you can throw money at it all you want, and you may stop it for 30K miles, but having lived thru 2 Rams with Death Wobble and the inherent danger it poses, especially while towing - not worth it to me.
Forgive me if I'm repeating anything, but to be clear - I've owned every brand of truck, Ford, Dodge, Chevy - never had a motor problem with any of them. The ONLY issue I've had was the death wobble on my 07 Ram 2500 at about 100K miles - dropped $1500 into it and couldn't get it to stop (Dodge denied there was an issue). Traded it for a 2013 Ram 3500 (supposedly updated the suspension so it COULDN'T wobble - and then had the wobble at 21K miles....that's right 21K miles. Took it to dealer and they said it was out of line....Lined it up and it wobbled the very next day. Had to cancel a last minute camping trip because my wife refused to ride in it.
Folks who have never experienced it have a hard time understanding how violent and difficult to control the vehicle when it happens..
Took a bath trading it for my 2015 Chevy, but my piece of mind is worth it. Good luck with whatever you buy, but if you see a 2013 Charcoal 3500 Megacab dually with 23K miles on the used lot - STAY AWAY!!!
I loved my Ram's - the Cummins is hard to beat. But for Dodge to try to say there is no problem and then this recall. I'm done, no Chrysler product will ever drip oil in my driveway again. I truly hated buying a "Gubment Motors" truck, but what are you going to do? At least now when I come to a bridge abutment or pothole my wife doesn't flinch....

I vote for Shrek.
We know Donkey is your hero...
I vote Jungle Book!

I traded my 2013 that death wobbled at 21k miles for a 2015 Chevy - I know I won't be able to recoup my losses, but good riddance...

Are they from Southern Japan?

Great update! :cheers:

Most I have seen have been 4:88's in the 550's.
ah....10mpg makes sense. It'd tow a house, tho'

Since I don't think I can discuss this rationally at this time without offending someone, I'd just like to thank all of those who are serving or who have served on this board in our Nation's fighting forces, our LEO's, and our Firefighters/EMS folks. Thank you.

Dually is a killer. I drove a 6.7 f550 service body about 250 miles a few weeks ago. 10 mpg highway.
I had been wondering what a 6.7 would do with a service body on it.
I'd be interested to know what the diff gear is in a 550 - thinking it was a 4:30 which would be much worse than a 350 with a 3.73.
-
Wow that looks great! I'm all about the Schtick...
Great pics!
-
If you can find a 350 you will be better off due to the higher payload capacity. On a 4x4 diesel payload on a 250 will be around 1800lbs on a 350 you will be around 3300lbs. If you ever wanted to haul a golf cart with you the 350 would be much better. As far as mpg it will be the same.
Amen - Dually might have a bit less mpg due to extra weight, but SRW should be no different. Rule of thumb, always buy a bigger truck than you need to so you have "growing room" down the road....

Who moves NORTH when retiring? Hate to see a service like this going away...Doug you need to do this!

First of all, Welcome!
Some of the larger boats are such that you sit INSIDE - not sure if that would make a difference, but the boats are definitely the fastest way to MK and not nearly as bumpy or smelly as the buses depending on how crowded they are.
Hope you have a great time!!!!

So if I sit in a wagon with a cooler of beer could that be an RV?

No I live far away and I'm fat...
Anyway, WELCOME !

Be aware that there was an issue within a specific manufacturing window on the 2011 Fords in which the glow plug tips would break off and fall into the engine, causing major damage. I'm only aware of this because TN22 has a 2011 F250 and told me about the potential problem as his was built during this window. He got a great deal, so opted to take the chance. You might reach out to him. That being said, at 112K, I'd highly doubt this would be a problem. Like Lone-Star said, the 10K difference in price would cover the cost of a lot of repairs, but - Less Miles and Warranty is always better, amen!
