Great Pics of a Great Truck!!!

BTW - ordered my DuraFlap Mud Flaps today - 12" width front and back - standard 9" length front with chrome weight/strip - 14" length (extra long to protect the new Stream) in back with King Ranch chrome weights - can't wait for them to arrive!

Fyi

I was talking to our local NAPA dealer and was complaining about the price of filters for my pickup. He said that a set of filters for the new Ford Diesels was $300.00. I didn't feel so bad after hearing that.

My filters and lubricants are prepaid for the next 7 years for $1700 at any Ford dealership nation wide. Filters at NAPA should be cheaper by then.

Ugh - yea - sure - and what the heck does that have to do with this thread? Either your Napa friend is wrong or they are marking up their filters or a little of both.

Seriously - Full oil change and filter swaps with motor craft filters is less than that...

Run along back over to your Dodge thread (if you can find a fun one to participate in) - this is Ford territory and here we ALL drink the Blue Oval KoolAid.
