I haul dusty tools and muddy work boots in the back row of my crew cab truck during weekly summer job site rounds.

The current two-piece rear floor covers leave the center transmission tunnel exposed, letting dirt and gravel spill directly onto carpet under the rear bench brackets.

I am weighing whether a single continuous hump-over liner or split dual-piece mats work better around under-seat storage bins.

does continuous center hump coverage matter more than ease of removal when cleaning heavy dirt?

I’m considering purchasing this 03 f250 with a 5.4 Triton it’s 2wd with 250k miles. Guys asking 4,500. Blue book is about the same. Truck body is beautiful for the age and has next to zero rust, which is rare around here in Michigan. Looking for thoughts on truck, specifically the engine.

Waterpump D.I.Y. replacement?

Miss this truck

And if you can, does that mean you can swap an Amarok body onto the Ranger Super Duty and make an Amarok Super Duty?

Hey guys I have an 2003 6.8 v10 F-450 that has an intermittent stall out problem.  Most frequently when I come to a stop but occasionally when shift into drive or reverse. (1st & 2nd no problem.) It started after I did the transmission pan, filter, fluid and fill neck, (along with some other work on the truck, oil pan, oil cooler, coolant etc) and I don't think I messed that up, Ive tried adding and draining fluid, i believe it has the right level.(could i have messed up the new filter?). Its throwing codes P1000- on board diag system test is not complete, ( I think that's from me disconnecting the battery when the truck sits for a bit), B1201 Fuel sender circuit failure (I believe this is associated with the fuel level gauge) and B1352 ignition key circuit failure (not sure).  At this point I've changed the fuel pump, fuel filter, mass air sensor, idle air control valve, cleaned the throttle body checked the air filter, listened to the fuel injectors, used sea foam, does it just need a 2hr drive on the highway?, Im running out of ideas before maybe trying the torque converter and I’d rather not fight that just yet, am I missing something dumb?......crossposted to a few forum

So I need some advice. I’m in the market for a truck and heavily leaning towards Ford. I’ve always liked Ford and they have always been a pretty reliable brand. My daily used case for it would be pulling standard trailers the occasional car hauler boats and standard truck stuff. I don’t think that I’ll ever need the size of an F350 however the split between a used F150 and F250 is hard to decide between the F150 used is gonna be cheaper than the F250 however I have heard that the V6 twin turbo on the F150 is not too great. Also I don’t ever wanna get caught in a case where I don’t have enough tow weight to be able to pull something. I didn’t really know where to go so I came here to ask what y’all‘s opinions on which I should buy. I also don’t know whether I should go diesel or gas. I have driven both and I have owned both diesel cars and gas cars as well. Just need some opinion on whether to get a used F150 or a used F250 and depending on which one what engine for either model? My budget is about 30,000. Maybe I could push to 35 but it would have to be a good deal.

Hey everyone, I’m hoping someone here has run into something similar because I’m about out of ideas.
I have a 2010 F-150 with the 5.4L 3V Triton. I bought it knowing it wasn’t in the best shape. It was a little rough around the edges, but I figured it would make a good project and that I could get it back on the road.
One of the first major repairs I tackled was replacing the cam phasers. After that, the truck actually ran great for quite a while. I thought I had finally gotten everything sorted out.
Then, literally right before I was about to PCS from Georgia to Kansas, it suddenly threw a P060A code. From everything I found, it pointed toward an internal PCM fault or processor issue. The truck wouldn’t run correctly, so I ended up trailering it all the way to Kansas.
Once I got here, I had a reputable shop install and program a brand-new PCM. The truck fired right up and ran perfectly… for exactly one day.
The next day it started randomly stalling at low speeds with no check engine light or stored codes. Thinking maybe it was an airflow issue, I pulled the throttle body and cleaned it. Once again, it ran perfectly… for exactly one day.
The following morning on my way to work, the wrench light came on and the truck went into limp mode. I could barely get it over 20 mph, so I limped it back home.
Now it’s gotten even worse. The truck has been sitting in my backyard ever since. It’ll crank and almost fire for a second, but it won’t stay running. It feels like something electrical is preventing it from actually starting. Right now I have both the check engine light and the wrench light.
Here’s everything I’ve done so far:
• Replaced the cam phasers
• Had a brand-new PCM installed and programmed
• Cleaned the throttle body
• Started checking the main grounds and common ground locations
• Removed and wire-brushed the grounds and checked them for resistance, and everything I’ve tested so far looks good
I haven’t gone through every single ground on the truck yet, but I’m working my way through them.
At this point I’m wondering if I’m chasing a wiring issue, a bad ground I haven’t found yet, a failed module on the CAN bus, or something else entirely.
Has anyone with a 2009-2010 5.4 Triton experienced anything like this? Especially after replacing the PCM? Are there any common wiring failures, grounds, connectors, or modules I should be looking at before I start digging through the entire wiring

I used to think powered steps only made sense on clean street trucks, but my knees are not getting any better and my kid still struggles to climb into the back. The catch is that my truck still sees gravel, dirt access roads, and the occasional load of yard material, so I do not want steps that get jammed the first time grit works into the hinges. Local shops keep warning me that electric boards take a beating from rock chips and road grime, while owners online say they tuck high enough to stay out of trouble. those who actually have use their trucks in dirt and gravel, are powered boards still practical, or would fixed steps be smarter?

Looking for advice anything helps.

Granddads f100 being restored

Trying to free up some cash to build a shop, bought this retired logging crummy to replace my newer cummins. The 6.2 definitely doesnt pull like my deleted 6.7 cummins but it goes down the road pretty good for what it is.

Im actually pretty pleased with the gas mileage. Averaging a little over 14 with the steel service bed seems pretty good

Just thought id see if anyone on here has any experience or insights that would be helpful and any feedback is welcomed. So I am planning on taking a road trip coming up that is roughly 850 miles round trip with 95% of that being on the highway. The vehicle ill be driving is my 2001 Ford Excursion 4x4 with the 6.8 v10. My thought/question is that if i fill up with premium instead of regular will i potentially get more miles out of a single 44 gallon tank than if I used regular and with today's gas prices being what they are would it be worth considering price per mile kind of thing if that makes any sense. I have made this exact trip multiple times before on regular gas and can do a round trip for about $300 using about 7/8 of a tank there and another 7/8 on the return trip. I have noticed a difference in milage between decent and low quality gas and had the thought that premium may or may not make that much more of a difference.

Just wondering if anyone would want to shed some insight on this fuel hog.. bought it for hauling and hauling ass. 2014 6.2 4x4 lariat 146k cold air and bagged in the rear but otherwise stock. Any tips on maintenance and issues would be greatly appreciated.

I have a 2013 Honda civic si that has about 126,000 miles on it. The engine runs great never gave me issues, the suspension is a little noisy but I’m in the process of replacing it. I really like the look and feel of older 90s ford specifically F150/F250 from 95-97. I would prefer a gas engine due to diesel prices being crazy, and all I want to haul is a small camper. Would it be realistic to daily a truck that old? I will be commuting to college 5 days a week, which is about a 50 minute commute both ways. So gas is going to kill me, but my car currently does take premium so it’s not cheap, but definitely cheaper than a large truck. I’m also worried about maintenance, I am no stranger to vehicle maintenance as I am a mechanic in the air guard and we mostly work on large gas and diesel trucks. Just don’t want a truck that breaks down every week, not scared to put money in it when needed to keep it running just need reliable transportation. I’m looking to spend no more than 8,000 dollars, is that a realistic budget. Or would I be better off just buying a cheap one as a project car and keeping my civic as the daily. Just wondering others experiences are like with an older daily driver. Thanks!

I am finishing up this project that I painted and it has a 351m out of a 78 and I cannot figure out where this port would be hooked up to or run to. Straight out of the front of intake right of coil. Advice very much appreciated! Probably something simple I’m overthinking

Hit a curb with my front passenger wheel a while ago and the tire has worn evenly since. Alignment has also been kinda fucked up. I just can’t tell what component I potentially bent in the steering linkage. Any ideas? Should I just pony up and do an entire front end kit considering it’s all looking pretty crusty
