Your favorite ride?

[Chris]

Out of all the cars you have owned what has been your favorite ride?

I've owned it 30yrs, and still like it as much as the day I bought it!

of all the vehicles I have owned I would have to say that my 99 f150 lightning Wannabee is my favorite. I do love my 65 mustang but I can't really drive it in winter. My F150 is a blast to drive, it looks good gets around great in the snow and handles really well for a truck.

 

[Chris]

That is a sweet truck.

You are supposed to move them before you cut the tree down....

 

[MarkWood]

Yeah that tree was hollow and fell on its own it also crushed my suburban and busted the hip rafter on my Garage!

 

[mustanggarage]

man some people will do anything for a new truck.

That is a sweet truck.

thanks. I always thought ford should have built an extended cab 4 wheel drive lightning, but they never did so I wanted to build one. I had ordered the stock lightning wheels and front bumper cover from a lightning and I was going to try to make it look like it could have been factory, but I got called up for Desert storm and ran out of time So I just bought the only wheels I could get in the time I had. and I never really got back to it. the ground effects were another thing where I bought what I could get in the time I had. anyway it is still a blast to drive.

I would much rather have kept that one! The F-250 I have now is far from my favorite

 

[Chris]

I am still up in the air on which is my favorite, I have many trucks and like them all for different reasons.

 

[oldognewtrick]

Power Strokes for the win.

 

[Chris]

I agree but I also love my V10, it is the ultimate for a gasser.

 

[MarkWood]

the power stroke or V-10 might be good but my 2002 F-250 has a gas 5.4 V8 and I dont like it to much that 02 Duramax that I had was a good pullin truck!

 

[Chris]

Those two are in two totally different classes. The 5.4 never should have been in a 250 and the Duramax is an awesome motor.

 

[MarkWood]

I agree!! never again my big trucks will be big block or deisil from now on!

 

[Chris]

Yeah the 5.4 got better mileage but you are killing that thing if you do any towing. I guess you could gear the crap out of it but then you wouldn't have a top speed either.

 

[mustanggarage]

the kenne bell supercharger on my 5.4 wakes it up nicely, no it is not perfect for every job. the 1/2 ton truck is just too small for towing my haulmark trailer for instance. but I have this for towing. 2006 f250 lariat powerstroke turbo diesel.

and they both still fit in my garage.
