love the SAS on the d-max. who makes your kit?
Its been sitting for 2 years. Kinda lost interest. But Im getting it back running again and making it nicer. I dont know why but I really like it. Has my favorite Ford motor. 4.9L straight 6. 5spd over drive trans. Almost like a diesel the way the power is. Its been everywhere from dunes to mud and some rocks. Guy who owned it before me ran a 'rental' car business for people from Sweden and northern europe to come to the US and buy a car and return it when they leave for some money back. So this bronco has been all over the country including canada and alaska.
I love new trucks but I hate payments and poor investments. I priced out a brand new 2012 2500 Cummins last night. I do this once and awhile because it makes me feel better about driving my old truck around. I haven't had a truck payment in over 10 years now and am well on my way to an early retirement.
My daily driver is a 2002 Dodge Ram with 305,000 miles on it. Fresh motor and Tranny, rides like a caddy on 20" Michelin LTX's and Bilstein shocks. Power everything, factory sirius and NAV RB1 head unit. It's only a 4.7l but it has more than enough power to haul all my current toys around.

Amen to that. I paid my truck off quick. I plan on having it a while. I'm just pissed because it's a 2007 Chevy, I bought it in 2010 and it was mint. I tow about 5k with it and the slip yoke has been serviced now 3 times, and replaced twice, and last week it started klunking again. Makes me very frustrated.
Dad left, me right. Now my dad has a 2011 4-door just like mine.

Couldn't afford 4x4 or diesel when I bought my truck. Going to have to use that slip yoke problem to justify trading it in on a 4x4 diesel in a few years.
Its a stretched out Pure Performance kit with king coil-overs
The steering column is between the gas and brake pedals? That would be very annoying to drive.
