Don't know anytrhing about either of your mentioned two Trucks.I do know of my 89 F-350 / 460 and 5 speed super cab with my 35' 11K Jayco 5th Wheel RV Trailer attached will get 9 MPG on the flat and no head wind and 6-8 running the Hills with no head wind. Head Wind is a big issue with one of these Trailers. My Travel Buddy with his 99 F-350 Power Stroke w/Auto Trans pulling a like amount of weight and wind resistance with his 10,600 Lb. King of the road has me beat about 2 MPG in the same situation of wind etc. Now, when we fill our Tanks I pay right now $2.51.9 per Gal. He pays $3.09.9. Neither one of us puts on more than 5,000 miles a year ,I can change my Plugs and Dist Components, Change 6 Gal. oil and filter,and do necessary Brake Trans or Clutch work. He in turn has to take his Truck to the Dealership for just about any thing having to do with the Engine or Drive system. My Licesnse is much lower than his as is my Insurance, No thank you I will keep my "OLd" Ford with the 460. Maybe I'll get it reupholstered in Leather and get a new Paint Job. That would make it an Keeper for sure. I'm not trying to discourage you but offering comments on my situation. My Friend nor I can come up with what a new Truck costs so we are happy with what we have. Good luck on your Truck deal.

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and ... [Read Article]
