I bought my 23 from Bud Cross Ford in Caldwell Texas. It's a tiny dealership, I got my truck for MSRP 10 days after it arrived and the buying process took 1.5 hours from walk-in to drive-out. Can't say I've ever dealt with a dealer that was so dam good.

Yeah, I'm doubting it's going to happen.

Man, I can't really blame these guys, It's money and if they could make it and sell it they would. What's more interesting to me is the utter lack of parts for this engine.. in comparison to some other performance vehicles.

I looked all over that atrocious website, and could not find those. Initially, I ordered a Ford drop-in bed liner with my points but they sent it without anyone brackets to my dealership so I need to keep it simple for Ford so they don't **** it up again.

Lets see those numbers

Man I didn't even notice your screen name, yeah I was referencing the HPD k9, can't imagine what he's going though.

Plenty of small AC units at lowes, you just have to pipe out the hot air they produce, and a third part monitoring device to monitor the Temps. If I can make one suggestion, k9s have cars especially built for this, with monitors, auto roll down windows, alarms and pagers. One failed the other...

Some sort of touch sense would be nice. I use it on long Texas straight highways and I typically rest my 4 fingers from my left hand on the bottom 6 o'clock position and I still get the warning. If the weight is to prevent the chime no harm no foul imo. If it's to lay back and nod, yeah that's...

Are you dense boy? I'm not saying it changes gears like a multi million dollar race, I'm jokingly saying it changes gears fast. Calm the **** down top gear, you're why people key raptors you arrogant **** sucker.

Odd presumptuous statement.

The transmission already changes gears ridiculously fast. Are you talking about when the truck "decides" to change gears and not the actual gear change itself? My 23 sounds like an F1 car in Baja mode.

Dam didn't know cobb was in Austin, can you bring your vehicle directly there?

Ok here's the real question, Ford says it's good for 80 something hours.. ok.. what does Ford say about leaving our trucks just idling? Like I live in Texas and camp and want to camp.with the wife. I'd be more interested in ot powering a small tent AC unit but can the truck run all nigjt with...
