My 01 F-350 Tow Rig


surprizingly no heh, i bought it from a dealership, and they had got it in on a trade along with 6 other powerstrokes the same exact color and were all f-350s. said it used to be a landscaping truck but idk for sure, mine was the second lowest in mileage when i bought it (79k), yeah its ugly but hell i only paid 15k for it at the time and that was when every diesel under the sun was selling for over 20k.
 
I'm sure you will probably get a lot of people driving down the road thinking "Why would it say real trucks don't need spark plugs ?" (I'm sure quite a few people don't know that diesel = no spark plug)
 
I would never complain about a 15k PSD, but I definitely think the short stack sets it off.

yeah i like it, the thing with me is, yes i would love it to be all one color like it was before(gonna have the cab painted sometime to match the whtie bed), but its a truck, it runs great, never lets me down when i need it. So in my eyes i could care less that its white and green, i get a lot of sh!t from people saying oh that truck is ugly as all hell, and whenever i see some jackass staring at my truck or wanting to race me, i just floor it and cover'em in smoke(thanks to edge :D ). I honestly could care less, its a truck, if i wanted a show truck i woulda spent way more than 15k and it would probably only see daylight twice a year lol.
 
That is a nice truck regardless of the colors. Only things I'd change is I'd put a set of '05-'07 XLT headlights and put a XLT front bumper on it. I'd put the towing mirrors on it too. Is it a ZF6 or auto?

I would love for my truck to be a 6 speed, but alas it is an auto. I had it rebuilt at 115k miles because second gear pretty much disappeared and the truck was shifting from 1st straight to 3rd. i had it rebuilt with upgraded parts including a HD billet converter, also installed a bully dog shift enhancer, basically consists of heavier springs and a new actuator for the valve body to increase the line pressure, which i thought was a pretty good idea seeing as i have a programmer on it. Now when i turn the truck back to stock, it will literally slam you back in the seat it shifts so hard, it shifts nice a firm with the programmer on full out 100hp 200fttrq, but with it back to stock it shifts alot harder.

Well, at least you've got the trans built to handle all the abuse you put it through. I like how those 35s on it at the stock height look.

Some people might say real trucks need neither spark nor glow plugs.
