[QUOTE=The Decoy;52105837]6.6MPG! Do they at-least give you fuel money? (that isn't part of your paycheck?)[/QUOTE] company supplied, company paid, don't get to bring it home :'( [QUOTE=Birdman101;52105856]is that a 350 or 450?[/QUOTE] 250 gasser
Is that MPG with or without hauling heavy things?
It had 8.8mpg avg when I first hoped in it today, I brought that up to 9.3mpg towing a tandem axle car hauler + load. Unloaded I got 14 ish according to my instant fuel economy.

[QUOTE=butre;52105973]too bad its a ford[/QUOTE] Its not too horrible, the ac blows cold, the cruise control works and it goes in a straight line. I wish it rode better but that's the LT tires fault.

[t]http://i.imgur.com/8qlmvBK.jpg[/t] I got this far in installing a set of seats out of a mazdaspeed 3 before realizing the wiring on the passenger seat was entirely different. Has anyone tried to swap seats and had to adapt the sensors to the car, I'm having real trouble trying to get it to play, and I'm beginning to consider just pulling the weight sensors off the original seat and just tossing them under the new seat.
Honestly, we've been Ford customers for almost two decades now for work. I love dad's f150 and our e250s just don't really like to die. Our f250s seem to die sooner than anything else from Ford, but even then it's only being an issue after about 250k miles on them, generally.

"I Drove a Ford and I Liked It" hit new single by DPKiller creates controversy

If the latter just grab a multimeter, see that they both read about the same values for a given load (say a pac of flour) using the ohm-meter function. If they're about the same you can just wire it in with the original connector.
I got a set of Lincoln TC seats for my p71, but the wiring is completely different, and my passenger seat is manual so I'll have to swap frames to get everything working :(

[t]http://i.imgur.com/ZbGVRlD.jpg[/t] They seem to use different airbag controllers, and the seatbelt plugs into the controller on the mazdaspeed seat, but it plugs straight into the main harness on the original, so I'm not sure what else there is to do beyond pull the electrical off the original and just leave the weight sensors under the mazdaspeed seat, but I'll be losing the passenger airbag.

Looks a hell of a lot nicer than my 2015 F250 base.
[QUOTE=Xanadu;52107129]What year/trim is this? Looks a hell of a lot nicer than my 2015 F250 base.[/QUOTE] Looks like the 2017 base model.
I have a quick question about a certain part. One day I plan to put a turbo on my 1989 Toyota Corolla (base 4 door) with a 4af 1.6l DOHC engine. Just there's one part I have zero idea what the name of it is, and it's basically the one piece that attaches to the top of the Carb so all the forced induction is directed into it. Any help? It's the silver piece as pictured here, not my pic obvs \/ [IMG]http://puu.sh/vkKEO/351e095837.png[/IMG]
it's called a carb hat
[QUOTE=butre;52107501]it's called a carb hat[/QUOTE] Awesome, thank you!
Man stubby bob is jank as hell once you really start looking at it [t]https://puu.sh/vkKNE/3d5a05576d.jpg[/t] [T]https://puu.sh/vkL5z/53ca4f76b8.png[/T] [T]https://puu.sh/vkKM8/631a706d10.png[/T] I don't care how rushed it is, 1/2" thick strips of iron welded to the frame is not a suitable shock mount.

[QUOTE=Grenadiac;52106588]"I Drove a Ford and I Liked It" hit new single by DPKiller creates controversy[/QUOTE] Funfact this isn't the first ford I have drove that I liked. I just dislike their older products. I will say its not all that great in the torque department but it will do. A powerstroke would have been nicer. [QUOTE=Xanadu;52107129]What year/trim is this? Looks a hell of a lot nicer than my 2015 F250 base.[/QUOTE] 2017 f250 stupid base model doesn't even have the chrome wheels. It's a 4 door ext cab longbed.
Dammit I hope my work truck is on a lease after all. I'd totally drive that instead.
I just wished the headlights went so fucking ugly, and wasn't so base trim that the middle seat is the cup holder / arm rest. Literally my only complaints.
Does it have Bluetooth? Mine cheaped out on that and only had aux.
only aux, i don't have any need to play my personal music. the local country station suits me just fine.
