boyst Posted July 19, 2014 Posted July 19, 2014 Pics of what? The 4bt conversion, or my Jeep? In Florida, especially where me, and Sammy Watkins live, you either have a boat, or an off road vehicle....I expect him to get his rig soon. He just got his spiffy car. Both! I have always loved me some Jeep. I grew up outside of Toledo - where every Jeep, ever, has been made.
gobilz Posted July 19, 2014 Posted July 19, 2014 It's a Dodge. It is a dually. Therefore it is a Dodge 3500 and has a Cummins. Cummins is 6cylinder and while it lasts forever and is good on fuel it has next to no power or torque. With a chip it doesn't get much better. Cummins may be good in some places but the hills of NC are no place for a 6cylinder diesel motor. 850 lb-ft sounds pretty good to me

Those numbers are up significantly from the 400 horsepower and 800lb-ft of torque offered by the 2014 model year Super Duty Ford trucks. This increase in power was achieved by adding a larger turbocharger and new fuel injectors that will do a better job of introducing the fuel to the engine in a fine mist. Best of all, these changes for the 2015 Ford F Series Super Duty lineup make that bigger power without negatively impacting fuel economy or emission levels.The 2015 Ford F250, F350 and F450 will all feature a new 6.7L PowerStroke diesel that will offer 440 horsepower and 860lb-ft of torque.

boyst Posted July 19, 2014 Posted July 19, 2014 no snorkel? Happy to see that. I am tired of seeing every idiot add a simple snorkel to their intake and thinking it makes a difference.

Nope not yet anyway. They are nice as they act as a cold air intake, but gives most people false since of invincibility. I go riding in the Everglades often, if you get that deep, your in trouble anyway!
QCity Posted July 19, 2014 Posted July 19, 2014 Wonder what Marone drives. Marrone doesn't drive, he walks to work with his lunchpail in his hands. Both ways. Uphill.

TakeYouToTasker Posted July 20, 2014 Posted July 20, 2014 (edited) Can't believe that so many players are showing up in trucks... ... Really? It's a matter of size and comfort. I'm around the size of an NFL FB/LB/TE/DE Unless the car has excellent design and a huge interior, I generally require something without cab-forward design and a shitload of headroom to be able to fit comfortably into a car. I've only driven Cadillac's and SUV's since the age of 23. These guys, on average, are amongst the biggest humans on the planet. Their choice of automobiles shouldn't surprise you.

Agent 91 Posted July 20, 2014 Posted July 20, 2014 Well it could be their moving into camp ride. I am pretty sure Mario has at least $3/4 of a mil in his driveway I do know he has a white on white bentley.
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted July 20, 2014 Posted July 20, 2014 One of my favorite stories was Troy polamalu driving into training camp in a small kia sedan.

mrags Posted July 20, 2014 Posted July 20, 2014 I can't believe someone actually thought of this as a newsworthy topic. Nothing against you Jack. The person that wrote the article though. Wow. Nothing better to do? Really?
