As for why new parts, it sat in the guys driveway for ev er and so he made it right.. he owns race cars so he knows how to take care of ****.

And thanks jt for your always lovely comments.. you know how to keep the mood alive. As for the anchor - the ****er pulls like it should with 450ftlbs and I got average of 12mpg on the tank I burned up

thats why i love my ol truck, mines not the quickest by anymeans but when she lugs down to 1500rpm she makes peak torque, so the black smoke rolls and shes not stopin till ya let up. i have hear good and bad about both the ford and dodge v10s but they do have some ***** that for sure, and it seams everyone but the people the have them say they get bad mileage, long as yer happy with it then who cares. but im a diesel man so what do i know lol

the ford v10 is a great engine but when ford designed the exhaust they made is so restrictive that it kills the engine. if you get headers and a nice system those things really open up and haul some major ***

i love my bronco, its cool that its SO HUGE.

i wish it had a lil more power, but its really just a half assed offroad truck, and winter truck for me.

maybe oneday ill put a small turbo on it to wake it up, haha.
