so yesterday I find out my 7.3 in my F350 has lost compression in 6 of its 8 cylinders. great. Not that big of a deal, i only paid $300 for the truck and it has a good fuel system, go find another 6.9/7.3 idi. But it still sucks!

if that wasnt bad enough, I go home from PT this morning, shower and change into ACU's and head to work. My DD is the tan B2 that you've seen im some of my pictures of the buggy.... about 5 miles down the road i get into the left turn lane to head to the gate on post, push in the clutch then while my foot is on the floor the clutch drops!... stalls the truck. restart it and i cant get it into gear. All the fluid is gone from my res. and i see brake fluid leaking out of the bellhousing... f-ing great. And I cant drive my buggy here which is my backup vehicle without getting pulled over and arrested for the tires sticking out.:annoyed:

what a great start to a week.
 
Go buy some big ass fender flares. LOL.. sorry to hear that man. Seems like everything falls apart all at the same time sometimes.
 
ARRESTED?!? seriously? for tires?!
 
ARRESTED?!? seriously? for tires?!

cost me $805 to get out of jail and get my vehicle out of hawk. Im dead serious. These people hate G.I.'s and want your money.

needless to say i wont be driving the buggy on the road anymore.
 
Fun times. I'm kinda surprised that a 7.3 gave out though. That almost never happens.
 
i'm just trying to wrap my mind around what they could possibly charge you with to ARREST you for tires. O_O
 
when it rains it pours man sucks to hear that all this happend to you al the same time
 
yeah ... they all talk to each other sitting in the driveway about what they can do to annoy owners ....... maybe my truck will get the hint and start acting right now that the van is gone ...... I warned it that if it gives the Suzuki any bad ideas it was going to Mike's Auto Salvage and it would be replaced with a Ford.
 
the samurai in my driveway, which is not mine... leaks fuel out of the carburetor now. ive literally got 2 running vehicles now. my wifes civic and my buggy. WTF.

Oh trust me.. im waiting to see what comes out too. I've already lawyered up. 2 months later and im still not charged.
 
Your dailys, which are probably less beat on, gives out before your buggy lol
 
man, thats BS that they do GI's like that. do they not realize that you do that same thing as them just on a much larger scale...i would slap some huge fender flares on there and drive it out of spite!!
