How many bails of hay can you fit in it? Would it drive over around and through brush at the ranch? Would my wife get upset if I threw a dead animal in the back? These are the questions you should ask yourself before buying a new car.

Pretty soon they're going to figure out a way to make fuel from garbage. That's going to put a dent in the middle east oil countries.

I've been farting from tacos and burritos for years!:p

I have a good friend his Dad has a 2005 F-350 with 6 tires and I don't know how many lift and if he goes like 70 miles per hour than the gas will go down all the way down because hes got this freaking fast chip with everything you can get to make it fast but gas will go down on highway very quick!

Mine was that way until I came to Texas. I had to get rid of the truck because gas was killing me. The truck currently is sitting in the barn back in Louisiana. It will be listed on www.ford-trucks.com for sale in the next week or 2. I hate to get rid of it, but I don't have the time/money/place to do all the little things it needs to get it back into good classic shape.

I don't care for anything Chevy makes. But a 350 is a work horse. You can do a lot with it. And dude is right, parts and add-ons can be had for one easily. That's what I like about Fords 302.

My Cougar has a 4.6v-8 in it. I've been real satisfied with it so far. It's not nearly fast enough for me, but it's also bone stock. I plan to drive it until it quits then I will put a 5.4L Triton in the car. That should do what I need it do to.

Man, 4.6 can't hold 8 cylinders. Mrs Mad drives an 03 GMC Envoy with a 4.2L straight 6...torque and hp...I was so excited about seeing a straight 6 I had to buy it.

Ford makes the 4.6. It's really a pretty decent engine. I was impressed with it from the start. It is the same engine that was in the Mustang Cobra a few years back that everybody was so nuts for.
Ford is coming out with a 4.0L 6 that will have about 20-30 more HP than the 4.6, more torque, and better milage. It will be in the 2006 Explorer. They are teaming it up with a 6speed Auto. The reviews are really talking it up like it's gonna be a dream. We'll see.

I like a straight 6. good solid engines. The old school ones from back in the day were just indestructible. We has one in a 3/4 ton GMC. It would pull anything with no effort.

I am freaking serious, my friend's dad has freaking fast truck and the mile per gallon is so low and even lower than Lamborgini (V-12) but he also has huge Diesel and imagine that also a Diesel with more than 40 gallons and it would still go down on the highway. I asked him why would he do that to his truck and make his mile per gallon and he said they just like it fast.
