Everyone needs a bricknose. It's the high water mark of trucks.

I regularly pull a 29' camper trailer with my Escalade.

Just get the 3/4 ton. Especially if you want a 5th wheel. You work for Ford so grab an aluminum F250 with a gas motor and whatever cab/bed combo you want. Diesel won't ever pay you back but if you want to spend the extra cash it's nice. Also don't waste your money on a 2wd truck. Much lower resale/not good in the snow.

Yeah I'm leaning towards the bigger truck and possibly a diesel because worst case I'll never use all the power, and it'll live forever. And yeah 4x4 or bust, I might as well keep driving the satire in 2ft snow drifts if I only get the 2wd

Used nv4500s for diesels sell for 1300 or more... in junkyard pull condition. I sell gas v8 ones that won't even fit the diesel for up to 1200 when I find them. You dodged a bullet, really.

I like the idea of paying less money for a (depending on make) better engine, trans, and diff. And ride quality? I drive all manner of work trucks from a v6 1500 to a Cummins F750 and they are all trucks and they all ride like poo poo. Personally I prefer the gm 2500 HD trucks, there's a billion of them still out there and they're hitting a very favorable price point even on clean ~100k mile examples.

Can't see the connector from the pictures, but it is likely to be an econoseal or superseal in my experience of LPG kits so far. If DE means it is a delphi sender is also possible its a Delphi metri-pack. Also see here Take some more photos for us and I can guess better, or Ken can likely ID it immediately. spog posted:I had a temp sensor that would occasionally give spurious results (my coolant probably wasn't -41'C) that gave me issues, so I tracked down a used replacement. I did lots of temp sensor research for my megasquirt install. I think a lot of temp sensors measure -40 to +130 - so around -40 may be the lower limit your ECU will display. It might just display -40 on open circuit and +130 on shorted direct to ground. This is a Bosch Datasheet for the sensor used by Rover in the Rover V8. There is a handy graph on page 2. The temp sensor on my LPG vaporiser seems to follow the same curve Tomarse fucked around with this message at 02:25 on Feb 6, 2017 |

An 8 foot bed would be nice even if I can't park anywhere I'd say either go full crewcab (Supercab, crewmax, whatever the full-sized 4-door is for the brand) and a 6' box, or the "smaller" crewcab and the 8-foot. If you get a Ford/Chev/Dodge with the full crewcab + foot box you'll hate yourself trying to drive it anywhere other than the highway. The things end up being like 130513058 feet long.

In my day there were no such things as double cabs with 5 foot beds. You need to haul 5 people, you put 3 in the cab and 2 in the 8 foot bed.

Colts fans seem to think their team have a blood hatred with the Patriots. Meanwhile the Pats don't even give a gently caress because they stomp the colts 9/10 times they meet. I am surrounded by Colts fans. And the poo poo talking is incredible tonight, I saw people making potshots at Brady's wife, a literal supermodel. So I was prepared for this ending

E: I don't give a rats rear end about football but yay patriots home team I guess? That bucket is pretty great too I would go 2500 on trucks simply because that usually means the cooler drivetrain options become available/standard. For example nv4500 transmissions are only in 2500 and 3500 dodge and chevies, 6.0L V8s are far more common in 2500/3500 than in 1500, 5.9s and V10s and cummins only come in 2500s and 3500s too. No idea what ford does because I don't really do anything with those.
