    08 f-250 Being Delivered today!

    Well, I'm not digging the hella wide look at this point. So, I'm ditching these 33s and 18s in favor of new 35x12.50-18 BFG KM2s with a 2" leveling kit and F-350 Blocks. I just liked the stance and height of my other truck so much more. So, hopefully I'll have pics in 10 days or so...

    KEM Performance DPF delete

    Taylor, Call Steve in MN at Tousley Ford. His number is 1-800-328-9552. You can talk to any of the parts guys there. They'll hook you up. Tell him you want the SVT Performance discount and you get OEM Ford parts for 10% over cost....Case in point - shifter motor for my brother's truck's...

    6.4 filling a service bay for one month

    I have 2k miles on it and I'm averaging 12.5-13.5 city/highway mixed. I'm hoping at 5k and 10k miles it will get better. It's also cold as all get out now and the mileage just isn't that good in the winter time no matter what you do. We'll see what it does this spring. If it's not improving then...

    KEM Performance DPF delete

    Well, I'm glad to hear you got 10. Everyone I know with a 450 and 4.88s gets about 8 empty or loaded. The gearing just kills them on the highway. But, they can pull your house - so that's the positive!

    So that's where your truck spent a bunch of time, Red? Interesting. I'll have to prod my guy about why they didn't get it right the first time.... :D

    Taylor, how many miles are on your buddy's rig? I don't see anywhere near that yet....no good.

    Diesel Fuel Price Up Again

    Yeah, I'm afraid the truck is going to be parked for the winter in favor of driving the gasser jeep! :rant

    KEM Performance DPF delete

    I agree. But, if the previous post is correct that the DPF is not required until 2010, then why would it be that large of an issue? I would spend some serious money with them if they would warrant the thing! I know it's a dream, but I was just thinking about it. Until then, I'll deal...

    KEM Performance DPF delete

    Options are always good. It would be sweet if Ford came out with a new flash and a full dpf delete system that you could buy and would retain the warranty. You know they have the expertise and technology to do it and they would make a killing!

    KEM Performance DPF delete

    nice. Keep us posted on long term positives and negatives of the system. I'm probably going to wait 6 months or so. That should be about 20-25k miles and I'll probably be ready for some difference at that point. Thanks, Rusty

    KEM Performance DPF delete

    Taylor, That sounds good to me. Let me know what happens with it. I'm tempting myself with the thoughts of tuners and straight pipes.

    Let us know the results. I'm pretty sure removing the DPF is a big no no but I could be wrong. We'll see I suppose!

    08 f-250 Being Delivered today!

    Thanks guys. I think I'll probably just stick with the chrome for now. Taylor - The HD headlights are available through any Ford Dealer. I get mine from Tousley Ford in MN because I have a guy there that we buy truckloads of parts from at a time. So, I get a little bit of a break. But, they...

    There we go. The avatar is changed... Ok, question. I'm considering going to black Moto Metal 951 wheels instead of the chrome. What do you all think? They are the same style as these, but only have chrome on the centers, lugnuts, and 6 bars on the outer rim of the wheel. Let me know...

    Diesel Fuel Price Up Again

    It went up 10 cents/gallon last night here in KC and gas prices dropped another 13.....It must be the home heating oil prices going up for winter. That's all I can figure because oil is down to $90 a barrel as of yesterday.

    Thanks Guys. The avatar is going to be changed soon. I actually had visions of getting it updated last night, but I fell sick and that was not a good situation at the old hacienda! So, hopefully I will get that done tonight! I'm planning on getting the liner and the hitch installed this weekend...

    2008 F250 lifted + 5er

    Mine are actually the ATZs and I love them. They are just aggressive enough, but not overdone. They are very quiet on the highway and don't seem to have murdered my mileage numbers too much.

    This is true. But I was hoping by doing everything in the first couple of weeks that it might slow me down a bit....

    Thanks CHP, now all I have to do is get the stereo finished, the bedliner sprayed and the hitch installed. I'm hoping it will be somewhat done for a while at least. :sly

    2008 F250 lifted + 5er

    Thanks Mike. My bed height currently is 55" on the dot. The truck does not have a leveling kit on it at all. If you are running a factory 20" wheel/tire package, your bed height will be about 1/2" higher than what I stated above as the factory 20" tires measure out to a tad higher than a...

    Thanks fellas. I really like it so far. Bush - We'll see how long they go. Everyone I have spoken with says they last quite a while especially for there aggressiveness. But, I suppose we'll find out how they last loaded! They definitely don't help me mileage wise, but I'm picking up a set of...

    I'd sell you mine if you wanted it. I just gave 350 cash and carry for 1108 to fit my new truck. Shoot me an e-mail and we can discuss price on the 1105. You can also check eBay. A bunch of guys are still selling the 1105s as new old stock items. my e-mail is [email protected]

    You can still get B&W 1105s for your truck. In fact, I have a brand new one in my shop that I was hoping to be able to use on my 08....but obviously that won't work... I know that didn't answer your q, but I thought you might want to know.
