  1. correct I'll bid 4275. That will tip it just over 5k. For that much I know ranchers here that will take it.
  2. Well all righty then, I like my old dodge, I'll stay. Now we just need to work out how much for the ford and when you want me to deliver. With the straight exhaust, people usually know it's me. Two sons pulled a big 5th wheel to here from S Dakota, when they got back the oldest thanked me for fixing his car. Before the trip he thought his car was loud, with the turbo wound up and the straight pipe bounced off the trailer, well, perspective.
  3. Unless you are tall ya can't see the roof. In your experience would it pull as well as the cummins? It has a bigger turbo & running a straight 4" exhaust
  4. Montana - we don't know what rust is.
  5. With the new rules, you can't go see it. It's an odd thing, the last auction I bought a tool trailer and probably paid too much considering repairs needed, it was desirable. Same auction had a late model GMC 1/2 ton low miles hail damage that sold for $3250, regular lot price is around 8K. You just never know. My son bought a low miles VW diesel sedan for $1250, small dent in a front fender that another son bumped out. This is Dodge country : )
  6. https://www.iaai.com/SalesList/361/04082020 Auction is the 8th They have changed rules, I can no longer get on the lot to see it. It does look like a nice truck. I have a 99 dodge that does all that I ask. For your business the ford makes sense. I don't really need it, If you want, I'll bid it for you, let me know your max. Of course you need to be a buyer, $200/year. You need to account for all the fees, 5K and above adds 15%, bid fee around $100, get out of jail fee $59. There has not been much interest for this truck, it's been in 4 sales I think.
  7. There is a 2000 F350 I'm looking at at auction in Billings with hail damage. I've bid it up to $3750 a couple times, not accepted. There are a few around at $6K. This one has 236k miles. Any point in going much past 4500? I'm dodge cummins 5.9 so the 7.3 would be different.
  8. If you're going to do metal, you have to do the real metal. As in flute. Skip to 2:48 if you must and listen to the metal madman.

    Engine

    Even a Prius can be "blown". 109K miles I suspect they did add gasoline but didn't add oil, or get an oil change
  10. Tease? naw, too many mods for you. NFS yet, my boys will inherit it.
  11. Anyone else using one so something similar? Great wrist forearm workout, I use it while driving. I've been wondering what physics causes them to spin up.

    Hail dents

    Really easy in Montana, I had two cars inspected yesterday, one is a 2014 Fit that has some major dings in it and the other is a 2006 Chrysler 300, when the inspector came back in she asked about other damage as she couldn't see but a very few minor dents. Both passed. Salvage title indicating hail are issued. I'll be watching to see what the mustang goes for. And there is this. 2011 Camero 2SS 6.2L
  15. Yup, mine has smaller fins, and its on the other side. I have a larger fan, no switch, it's always on. Similar mounting as the photo. No photo, sorry.
  16. That's why I mounted and wired in a computer cooling fan directly to the regulator, always on.

    Hail dents

    The reason I'm asking, local salvage auction. Billings Mt got hit with hail, currently 400+ vehicles will be up for auction, probably more than 2,000 total.

    Hail dents

    Are there any successful ways to pop them out?

    Fuel Consumption

    That's why my ears ring after running them 50 years ago.

    Fuel Consumption

    There is much to be said there. When the federal gov forced Montana to give up it's reasonable and prudent limit, well, actually for a time we were forced to drive 55 the bus companies saw a sharp increase in fuel consumption . They were geared to get best economy at 75, the optimum power band. I know my cummins is best at 1700 rpm.

    Fuel Consumption

    True But what difference should that make? The amount of energy required to move an object should be the same or similar regardless of the power potential. And that is something that has always puzzled me, Blackbird 35mpg - Harley 35 mpg - Honda Fit 35mpg Drag racing - well, that's different.
