I had a '03 Super Duty. It leaked coolant the first day I had it, and it was all downhill from that point on. Piece of sheetz.

My truck will most likely have its comback tour in '08 for it's 40th Birthday. Detroit Diesel with a 5 speed New Venture trans. 14 bolt full floater rear/Dana 70 front axles, NP205 divorce mount transfer case. Jeep trucks only! No Big Three tonka toys for me. 38" tires with no lift.

Mines not for sale, at least not right now, I need to use it through the winter.

For sale sign in the pic. I got excited. I was already counting money.

JNZTuning · 12-20-2007, 11:59 PM

Sold the Dodge but still have the Jeep...

poolmike · 12-21-2007, 12:03 AM

2 door Pioneer! Nice Jeep.

JNZTuning · 12-21-2007, 12:17 AM

Thanks! ...I really need to get off my ass and finish it up. Need to reseal the windshield, fix the front axle disconnect (or swap it), swap the steering column, and fix the ac/heater fan. Ugh.

nissan4life · 12-21-2007, 12:18 AM

nice pics... might get an 87 suburban and lift it for a daily plus i'm getting it from a gm employee for free

My '95 is the same way...needs a heater core, desperately needed alignment, way overdue on fluid changes....Every time I get motivated to maintain it, I usually end up taking it out to some trails to beat the crap out of it instead.

Ahh, a totally different truck. The 300cid 6cyl. has been around since the early 60s. Great engine. You won't be able to kill that one.

Chevys have a great powerplant but i dont care for the looks at all. So i dont see how ford diesels are garbage? also what kind of truck do you have??

couldn't have put it better myself. The only thing bad about Fords is the new 6.0l diesel. I mean they are alright now, but when they first came out they were trash. My dad got an 03 and had 4 engines replaced and he only has 70,xxx on the clock. Plus, you Ive seen people putting turbo timers on their 6's. You can tow for hours, go mudding, completely beat the shlt out of a 7.3l and then just shut it off and call it a day, and it takes it like a champ.

As for dodges, I hate dodge trucks they're garbage. However, the cummins inine 6 is a freak engine. My friends got a inline 6 w/ bigger turbo, injectors and intercooler, adn he runs like low 13's ina 7500lb truck. I mean stock 6's basically stay neck and neck with my GSR. But, if I had the choice Id take take a Ford.

Bill, I sold that POS Summer '06 and I'm still feeling the effects of the anal raping I took on it. I'm gonna stop bitching about it now. OK maybe not. It's making me sick all over again. F'n Stupid Duty. Damn truck couldn't haul a bag of groceries without shearing a ball joint or blowing a head gasket. It was a good looking truck, I always kept it spotless, so it would look good while in tow or at the dealer service facility.

streetAssasin96 · 12-21-2007, 02:47 PM

haha. thats ashame you got a lemon. ill agree with you though '03 was not the year to buy ford trucks.

WhiteFiveO · 12-23-2007, 01:54 AM

03s were hit or miss with the 6.0 it was a completely new engine so those kind of problems are likely to happen when something new comes out just like every other car around. I have a 96 f250 with a 7.3 and i love it never gives me any problems

poolmike · 12-23-2007, 08:46 AM

Mine was a gasser. 5.4 Liter. I wanted to set the truck on fire and push it off a high cliff. The Power Joke diesels are actually International Harvester engines, that is the only reason that they actually run.

poolmike · 12-23-2007, 09:00 AM

Real trucks here. I will own a Unimog some day.
