  1. Count us in.. lvnalolife and family 9digit justintime and family (I think)
  2. Good catch. Sounds like a good deal and looks like it works perfect for what you wanted.
  3. Congrats! If he is anything like my boy, his first sounds will be banshee exhaust noises. Every time I fired it up he wanted to be on it. Now at age 4 (tomorrow) all he asks is when are we going to Dumont. Gotta love it!
  4. For those of us that have rails, garages are definately not an option.
  5. I get chitty mpg! Of course it wouldn't be because of the ridiculous lift and 15.5" wide 38" tires and 4:56 gears! Actually its not too bad. Get about 12-13 city, 15-17 highway (depending on go-pedal position) and about what Pete gets towing(same trailer) Running the DP-Tuner 5 position chip. Usually in the 80 hp Economy tune. Supposed to be the best for fuel mileage.
  6. Good to hear! Did you get an aftermarket trans cooler or go with the stock one for the 6.0. It is huge. I put it on mine and even towing my beast of a trailer, the most the tranny gets up to is 185 and that was the middle of the summer at about 100 degrees. And I only have and oil to air cooler. Mine doesn't loop through the radiator like the later models. The bigger cooler is always a good idea. Have fun and try not to break it again!!
  7. :ahhhhh: I guess I was at the last level cuz after I completed it it says this...
  8. I got this far while at work. I will play at home!
  9. Cole, what year is your truck? Same thing happened to mine once. Had the retards at the tranny shop rebuild it 3 times under warranty before they decided to come out of pocket and buy a reman from Ford. I have heard some bad things about some AAMCO shops and their rebuild of the 4R100. I hope this guy is good and knows his sh*t. If you are going to try and build power with a programmer or chip, then I recomend at least a shift kit put in it. The good one is called the Transgo Tugger kit. The best option would be to get a Factory Tech Valve body or a BTS valve body. It will shift 10x better and have less wear on the clutches. Either one is a couple hundred bucks. A Ford remain runs about $2300 so hopefully he is not charging you that much. If you are willing to get the best call BTS or John Woods. I know the BTS is about $4000 and he dares you to brake it.
  10. HAHAHA! Yeah I missed mine too! Didn't want to run into Pete there! :no_no:
  11. You really need to try and get the trailer as level as possible. Go buy a longer shank for your weight distribution and invest in a sway control.
  12. I see that thing parked over by Hot Rod Grill. As Joe would say, "That's badass!"
  13. Good times Sat night. We had a blast! Thanks for the good times!
  14. Second that. I know James at Adam's Driveshaft uses them, so they must be good, cuz he used them for his personal truck.
  15. You mean the 12v cigarette lighter plug right?
  16. HAHAHA that was me and 9digit. We were wondering why you kept letting us pass. 1st stop was to double check the tie downs. 2nd was in Tecopa to see if Craig (9digit) wanted to dump his trailer. And the 3rd was for my 3 year old son to pee. Then later we were dropping a friend off at her car on Blue Diamond and Rainbow and saw you come by again. It was fun playing leap frog! Next time I see your rig I will say what up!
  17. Thanks Dave. He is a true Dumont Duner. He has been talking about Dumont for the last month so I had to take him. Did you figure out what was blowing the fuse yet?

    My new toy

    Dude I want one of those!! As Joe would say "that's badass!"
  19. Me, my wife, Charlie, Craig and my wife's god daughter got in around 1:30am. We stayed up til about 4:00am. Got about 2 1/2 hours sleep. Woke up when Pete and Steveo got in. The sand was beautiful and the razors were SHARP! I managed to get stuck on one! It took a good 10 mins to get out. Well we had a blast. My son didn't feel too hot, kept getting sick but all is fine now. We had some good rides in. Dman and me were in our rails. Can't wait to do it again. Good times!
  20. I think me and 9digit are going to come out. I will just bring my tired a$$ Banshee or just ride the wifes fresh Banshee.
  21. As long as you aren't watching a movie and then try to pop some popcorn in the microwave!
  22. I know, but I have a big group that would rather go for a weekend then one night. I will regret not going to the night ride, but I am sure I will manage to hold back my tears while I am up in the cooler Utah weather all weekend! And I am not pissing the family off by going over Father's Day.
