wtf, thats a lil bit over kill don't you think. wonder what kind of gas milage it gets? prolly like 3mpg. that thing is crazy looking, i saw one that was white in chicago, they are huge.
those things are freakin' rad! there was one at spring break natl's in daytona earlier this year, and it was even cooler because the guy was blasting phil collins from the stereo.
I think, maybe he was talking about the International being 125k. I believe most of the bigger Fords like the 650 start using CAT motors instead of the Powerstroke. I could be wrong though.
Yeah but when would the common person ever need that. A F250 is more than enough to tow pretty much anything. Im not saying its not nice, shit if I had money to blow I would into something crazy like that or just get a 250 and mod the crap out of it. Boosting 35 lbs, propane injection, you know the works.
350s are the way to go for towing. A dually with a fifth wheel will haul 21K lbs. The 450 and up are available with Cummins and I think International. However the powerstrokes are actually International engines.
I have heard of Dodge losing the Cummins contract, and moving to Merc Diesels. Also heard about Ford using them but wasn't sure if they were implemented yet. Chevy needs to drop Izuzu and find another motor, cause from what I hear the motors blow but the Trannys are kickass Allisons.
