So even with the 7.3 and 4.3 rear end, the weight will really be that noticeable? Years back when I put mud terrains on an ancient Tundra, it had a huge effect on the drivability. Would prefer to avoid that this time around.
The closest I come to off roading these days is a campground with an unkept road lol. The Coopers were great on the F150, if a little dull looking. Putting heavier tires on that will put more wear and tear on the drive train, possibly nosier, and worse for MPG seems like a bad idea.
Hi everyone,
Need help deciding on a new set of tires. Cooper AT3 XLT or Falken AT4W. Both look good, pricing is about the same and the reviews on the Falkens seem to be consistently good, same with the Coopers, but the Falkens are noticeably heavier by about 8 pounds per tire - would that...
The small fuel tank is my only complaint on this truck but small fuel tanks are Fords go to move. I had a company Escape that got about 33mpg but had an 11 gallon tank so you could never really go past 300 miles. My wifes explorer also gets about 20mpg but has an 18 gallon tank which limits it...
I wish someone would figure out a way to stuff the Super Duty LB 48 gallon tank into a short bed. It would be a nice compromise to the 56gal Transfer flow and its 3k price tag, which is a tough pill to swallow.
Anyone know roughly how long it takes to install? I really like my truck but for the life of me I can't understand why Ford put this sippy cup of a fuel tank in a truck that weighs 7000 pounds with a big block V8. I didn't buy it for mpg, but it would be nice to go more than 275 miles to a tank...
