    To get the 10 speed behind the 6.2, you have to go for the 350, the 250 keeps the 6 speed for some reason. That’s only 2020+. Anything prior has the 6 speed. The 7.3 and the 6.7 both come standard with the 10 speed.

    I need a commuter car badly, keep the miles off the truck so I can keep it longer.

    I do miss my 5.9 12 valve. Of course not much of the body would be left on it by now. Rust had started when I sold it even after replacing the rockers and top of the rear wheel quarters. I swear the bodies are made out of recycled Toyota frame steel.

    Would be easier to park it in town as well. One thing that must blow about a full size truck.

    It's good to practice period. But different types of metal and thickness = different variables thrown in which = changing the way you weld.
    So basically try to practice on something that is as close in resemblance as you can find:thumbsup:

    I had/have one and they’re pretty easy to do . I took it out because my yard is fully fenced in. Wish I kept it buried and operational so in case she got out there would be a back up . I got the pet safe brand from Lowes. Collars are cheap though. I ended up taking one of those metal things used to find out what size a drilled hole is so you can match the drill bit to it . I heated it up with a map torch and melted holes into a Kong collar so the contacts could fit through. Collar that came with it fell apart.
    Will send pics in awhile

    3.89 here was the lowest we found today. Chances are that's going to be going up.

    I'm at about 120-150 a month in gas outside of road trips, just day to day work/dog park/kayak etc so it won't kill me but still not a fan.

    Am seriously considering a Nissan leaf. Likely need one for my new commute anyway so two birds one stone.

    Yeah... i have to plan ahead when i visit the city. I don`t fit in many garages in Boston. There are a few new ones i can squeeze into then i take the T from there. I have tk remeasure with the cap though, if i got any taller, my usual spots are also a no go...
