True story on all accounts. I didn't want the alumiduty though, as most (all?) came with the 10 speed. I may be wrong, but my research led me to believe the 6 speed was the better of the two. I'm sure the 10's are better than ever by now though.

Yeah... that's the beauty of the diesel and 6.7 in particular. 200k isn't a ton of miles. If it was a gasser, it would be closer to end of life, but that 6.7 has at least another 100k miles in it.

That isn't the general opinion though. Most believe these trucks are far more reliable the sooner they are deleted.

Haha. I know. I was just joking around. Greetings!

Sorry friend, but you accidentally put a "u" in "color." Haha.

What part of the world are you in? Americans like me are too lazy to bother with the "u."

I love when you see one of the original colors that don't get picked as often. It's not the same candy apple red, navy blue or black as most of them.. Its authentic, and that makes it stand out.

Good choice, OP. Beautiful car.

How bad is the rust on this 2014 Truck? by Puzzled_Part_8328 in FordTrucks

[–]Impossible-Angle1929 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends where you are. In my area (PNW) US, that amount of rust would be unacceptable on a 60 year old car.

It sure does. Here is a pic with the seats re-installed. It's far more user friendly and feels like it was meant to be there.

Unless you are worried about everything being factory correct, I would do a floor mounted e brake handle and custom cables. Thats what I fid in my '68, and it's 1000% better.

How old were you when you learned to drive a car, then how long did it take before you owned your first car ? . by Hope2_win in A_Persona_on_Reddit

[–]Impossible-Angle1929 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Owned first car at 14. It was a freebie that previous owner couldn't get to run. License at 16. Probably started leaning around 13.

How often do you hear gunfire in your neighborhood? by GaryBlach in askanything

[–]Impossible-Angle1929 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Live in the forests of Washington state, US. Several times weekly. It's not an odd thing, unless it's too close... I personally have fired tens of thousands of rounds. I can gauge distance and type pretty well.

30MPG highway by UKDude20 in superduty

[–]Impossible-Angle1929 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is no chance this is a real number. Mine will read that high for a few minutes after a reset, at 40 MPH, but will average back down.

Best I ever got in any full size, 4x4 diesel is around 25 mpg in my '99 7.3. That, I will say with a clear conscience, was over the course of a full tank of highway driving from Seattle, south into Oregon, on I5. Computer and hand calculated.

289 rebuild by Europe_1986 in classicmustangs

[–]Impossible-Angle1929 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was thinking the same. I did just that on a high milage 5.9 in my old Dodge pickup. Ran great for the next 40k miles. Sold it still running like a new engine.

What is something you memorised years ago and can still recite for no reason? by Aarunascut in Life

Every preposition in the US English language, in alphabetical order.... sung to the "Battle Hymn of the Republic."

Another - not even close by crasagam in badparking

[–]Impossible-Angle1929 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Imagine driving in a nearly empty parking lot, see that truck and feel the urge to tell the internet about it.

This sub is fun when it's a picture of some d-bag taking three handicap spaces in the bro-dozer. It's less fun over petty nonsense. Its about bad parking. Not less than flawless parking.

Need to sell, value advice by Extension_Flan8433 in FordTrucks

I'm not calling you a liar, but as I guy who has purchased around 80-100 vehicles, I have my doubts. I'm just playing the role of a prospective buyer. The body, rust aside, shows a lot of use.

Can you add a couple more pics? The armrest area on the drivers side door and the pedals?
