I can blow the tops off 'em with a 502 MAG! Never saw the use for a windscreen on our Tantrum.

509, there were some low mileage ones but people want close to $30K for some of those. Crazy

I also drove too many 6.0l that just seemed to be junk. decided the 7.3l is what I wanted, this one was my friends who traded it in cause wasn`t ready to buy, I knew he took super great care of it.

I thought I`d miss my Blown F150 but a chipped Diesel MOVES out like I never thought possible for such a beast!

Now all my friends can come with to the beach and not drive seperate

Yup blew my wife's off with my 502 mag, but I think the 3ft chop might have helped.....sorry no pics, she's too shy!

Sleev-les, might be interested in your windscreen if you want to sell it, putting it off for years....bugs & my fat cheeks start to hurt with old age

You're right, the low milage ones are going for crazy dollars with the ? 6.0 litre to boot. I suggested he just get the V-10 for the little towing he does anyhow, so what if the mileage sucks. It wouldn't have the power of a diesel, but it would get the job done.

V-10 will get the job done but for a speed freak like me it was just a bit too lazy. Really its the weak 5.4l with 2 more cylinders.
prices are really good on the V-10 thou.

Sorry for the hijack Scott
