Re: Hit 200,000k

Hey Tim,
I should have a bunch of new stuff next week. Hopefully I get a couple first gen. Camaro's. I'll let you know what I get.

Burnsmazz,
You're right about the V10's not getting the credit they deserve. They are great motors. Tons of pulling power and you can't kill em. I know of a few with 400- 500k still going strong.

I have one that blew the spark plug out of the head at 72K. $1500 repair and they said there are 9 more cylinders to go. Ford said it was nothing I did. This has been a big problem with the V10's.

Looks like you had to back up to get that number, it's still in reverse :drink:

Congrats

HOLY CRAP! That's some rough news to hear! For $13,500 you could pick up a PSD out of a wreck.

They've adressed those problems on the new V-10's,plus in 05 they went to 3 valve heads about 45 more horse and over 50ft lbs. more torque.

Wobble,
Actually it turned 200,000 just as I pulled in my Garage. It was very strange. :et: I didn't even drive out of my way to get it to flip before I got home. I took the pic. the next day when I was backing out(R). I also reset the trip to add more 000 to the pic.
Never had any spark plug issue's. I have only changed them once.
Towing it gets the same gas mileage as my powerstroke dually. Not towing the diesel gets better mileage.The dually does have 410's and the X has 373's. Power is pretty equal. The V10 likes the higher RPM's and the diesel is all down low.
