RE: 7.3 Ford gas engine
I’ve got just shy of 25K miles on mine. Love the power, but it’s thirsty. I get between 11&12 around town. 8 something towing, depending on the wind.

RE: Tire Advice
For what it’s worth, I replaced all four of my 3-year old Endurance tires with Hercules strong guards yesterday. Having lost confidence in the GY bombs, I figured I couldn’t be any worse off with the new (Chinese) tires than with the old (American) ones. The reviews that I found on the Hercules tires and brand were decent. We will see as time will tell.
what issues or problems were you having with the Goodyear Endurance?
Had one separate completely and do pretty bad damage. Manufacture date code “0720” and inflated (religiously) to 80 psi. No uneven wear, and no signs of impending failure. I bought those (and paid a premium) to avoid those kind of problems.

RE: Tire Advice
To heck with the GY Endurance. I just had a failure today, on 3-year old Endurances. Tread separation, with damage to the trailer. Tire never lost pressure. Actually looks like a retread that came off. Tires were properly inflated at 80 PSI. ??

RE: Hensley Arrow tips
Hard to hook up? Wow, what a bunch of negative Nancies! Never had a problem with mine, but then again I never park at a stupid angle. Enjoy the hitch, and get associated with the “bump.”

RE: Electric and ICE forever together?
A car salesman has no clue what the future of the ICE may or may not be. As the old saying goes, you know he’s lying when his lips are moving!

RE: Alarming spalling failures on 7.3 Godzilla
Sure am glad I got the lifetime powertrain warranty with mine. I must confess that it is a bit noisier than I’d like on cold starts.

RE: Big Bend National Park - RV PARKS
Do NOT go in the summer, nor during spring break (it’s too busy then).
Stay in Terlingua, and spend Sunday afternoon on the porch at the general store.
Go to Lajitas, and buy the mayor, (the Honorable Clay Henry) a beer.

RE: Dealers lots are filling up
Before this thread gets locked, I’d just like to point out that it is “college.”
Good grief, what a bunch of freaking ninnies.

RE: New 2024 Chevy HD and Increased Dmax Power
I had hoped they’d clean up that atrocious face. They did, but didn’t improve it any in my opinion.

RE: 2023 Ford Super Duty Reveal
I agree. Very boring reveal. I tuned out even before the truck was shown. Evolutionary, certainly not revolutionary. Surprised by a new base engine.
