    Glen, Was hoping to go but with the hip bashed in as it is, not such a hot idea; sorry.

    Coming home

    Hopefully see you at the Meet&Greet on the 14th. Are you guys stopping in Paphos or Trier by any chance, or skipping decompression?

    Plugging in my diesel

    Personal opinion only, from a transplanted West Coaster who learned the hard way during the past 20+ years on the Prairies and who has 4 trucks, 2 each gas & diesel: Synthetic oil is better than dino, but thick syn isn't better than thin dino; ie 15-40 synthetic will produce harder starts than...

    Hi Barnes, Wondering about the M113 avatar, I'm with 408 THS, wondering if you're based here too? I'm in search of a new beacon and yours is highly rated, if you still have it. I think there's a serious Canadian price gouge thing happening here though. My lawyer brother lives near Seattle and...

    Roll up the rim

    It was a few weeks ago, but I won a leather Roots backpack. Kinda weird: there were 5 $2500 prizes available in our AO, only three were claimed. Guess two of those were tossed without anyone checking.

    2010 or 2011 f350

    If you're referring to the test in the Feb issue of Diesel Power, that is not correct, the test Ford WAS the reflashed version. I'm a die-hard OBS Ford guy ('93 F350 7.5 gasser, '97 F250 7.3 oil burner) and hate to say it, but within the specific parameters of the test the bow-tie won handily.

    Anyone like their 6l ford ?

    Big problem with the 6.0 is the EGR cooler, it's an absurdly poor design and eventually will fail, allowing coolant into the motor causing all sorts of problems. Warranty repair will just re & re the same crappy part, only real solution is to swap it out for a better one from some place like...

    Roll up the rim

    The Timmie's in Kandahar has a good deal for us, lot more prizes available than at the outlets back in Canada. Aside from the usual coffee & donuts, two of my crew have won Roots backpacks and two have won hats. No one's gotten $2500 yet but last tour one did get a laptop. Sucks a bit though for...
