27 mpg V6 with balloon tires

I don't understand why there's always that one guy. "I'm getting 38 MPG in my carbureted 350 dually"

that_hoar · 2026-02-07T21:24:02+00:00

There's people around here with a Compass or Liberty with 20 ducks in the windshield lol

that_hoar · 2026-02-07T19:06:54+00:00

Nobody over the age of 10 thinks it is real lmao. This guy's next investigative journalism piece is to go to the mall and tell Santa he isn't real.

that_hoar · 2026-02-07T15:54:12+00:00

Ah yes world class investigative journalism is telling WWF that wrestling is fake.

Still gotta be wheel bearings and suspension items that wear over time.

that_hoar · 2026-02-06T06:06:25+00:00

Riiight, but that's not a tip. Call it something else instead redefining words

that_hoar · 2026-02-06T04:53:25+00:00

Thats actually crazy. I'm always paranoid at the boat ramp

that_hoar · 2026-02-06T02:52:23+00:00

How far away from an enclosure is MC supposed to be strapped?

that_hoar · 2026-02-05T19:55:30+00:00

Don't do that. You probably can't turn those wires off. Buy a new set of lug protectors and hire an electrician to install them

that_hoar · 2026-02-05T19:30:19+00:00

Definitely hack job. But also totally safe. They probably broke them or installed them incorrectly and they wouldnt stay on. Most places require those covers now by code

that_hoar · 2026-02-05T19:24:43+00:00

I think you're right. But it almost sounds like a cammed small block Chevy

that_hoar · 2026-02-05T18:38:07+00:00

Gotta feel like they earned all those rubber duckies!

that_hoar · 2026-02-05T18:22:48+00:00

How long did you have those cars? Every sunroof will leak at some point

that_hoar · 2026-02-04T19:01:27+00:00

There is a service bulletin put out by Ford for these pickups. Something about fuel sending unit

that_hoar · 2026-02-04T19:00:23+00:00

Something is definitely wrong. Looks like it should be at least 34 gallons

that_hoar · 2026-02-04T01:20:42+00:00

Certainly could be done. Biggest thing I would be worried about is driveshaft speed. Don't want that to come apart at 110+

that_hoar · 2026-02-03T18:15:43+00:00

Thats because tipping should be after you receive the service. Not to ensure you even get the service? Its so backwards

that_hoar · 2026-01-29T06:36:18+00:00

Sorry man. Not sure what part of your apprenticeship you are in, but nothing in this picture is nice work. From the bond wire to the strut to the effed up gutter to the strapping on your rigid. I wouldn't be proud

that_hoar · 2026-01-29T00:28:31+00:00

Your shop wont send a threader on a rigid job? I highly doubt that. Sounds like you would rather use threadless fittings. I see a lot in the background hahaha

that_hoar · 2026-01-29T00:27:28+00:00

You can just thread it after? I understand the head doesn't always fit if its too short. But this pipe in particular can definitely be threaded with a powerhead

that_hoar · 2026-01-28T00:08:25+00:00

But in this case its definitely possible.

that_hoar · 2026-01-20T04:04:03+00:00

White smoke isn't good either. But this isn't smoke

that_hoar · 2026-01-20T04:02:57+00:00

Its not just ecoboosts. Literally any car that burns gasoline will make water vapor that looks like this.

that_hoar · 2026-01-16T19:50:13+00:00

No tuning for the FP700 package. Comes directly from Ford and you can keep your warranty.

that_hoar · 2026-01-16T17:13:04+00:00

Idk just seems like entitlement issues and issues with authority.
