The Offical WFF BS Thread!

[R. Chapman]

While in Missoula today, I found a 2000 Chevy K3500 non-dually crew cab long box with the big 454 in it with headers, cold-air intake, flow master exhaust system and a host of other accessories. 89,000 miles and they wanted $9,000. Man that would be nice to have that crew cab.

That would be a nice truck.

My buddy was blabbing at me about the "shitty" mileage. Who cares, you buy a 3500 or F350 or any truck with a 1 ton suspension, you're not after mileage.

Why do you need a 1 ton truck?

There have been a few times where I've needed it.

[Olly]

However, most people that don't haul much think their compact pickup can haul a ton or two because they don't realize how little that is.

One ton of soil is about 8 inches of dirt in the bed of my Ranger if I did my quick math correct. And that doesn't include passengers or anything else which I believe you are supposed to include. I don't haul much, so I don't worry about it, but if you do, you need something a lot bigger a lot quicker than most people realize.

You just know everything don't ya? I have a 3/4 ton truck sitting on a 1 ton suspension and I get over 22mpg. Better than I was getting with a V6 Ford Ranger I had. Just because YOU don't feel like you need a bigger truck doesn't mean that simply having the piece of mind that I can haul anything I want anytime I want is worth having it.

[Bad17]

I don't need to see fish again for awhile.

You mean Pish?

I cooked over 10 gallons of fish today, 5 lbs or hush puppies and 30 lbs of fries.

How do you cook gallons of fish. We usually do pounds of fish.

If you wanted piece of mind to be able to haul what ever you wanted when you wanted you would have a 550. You can hook to what you want when you want and haul. Also having 4 wheel drive on it as well.

Using that logic you should have said I needed to drive one of those crawlers that used to roll the space shuttle out onto the pad. But you knew what I meant.

My truck is a 3/4 ton. I was told it had stock axles, but they are 8lug. Always thought only 1ton were 8 lug so I don't know.
But it will haul 3,000 lbs of fish in the bed with a boat behind it. Haha. She was bottomed out and sketchy as hell. But I was happy I don't have a 1/2 ton.

Send your VIN to Dodge they will tell you. You had to special order the Dana 80 and 1 ton springs and leafs. The guy who I got my truck from bought it specifically for pulling a 5th wheel but he didn't want a dually.

I'll have to do that. Who knows what the guy that put the lift kit and everything on it did though. He coulda swapped the axles for all I know.

If that lift kit replaced the OEM springs they never have as high a spring rate of OEM.

Never weigh any fish other than guessing with it in hand. A gallon is a gallon bag stuffed with fillets till it won't hold any more.

A half ton Toyota Tundra did that.

Yes I know of the promo stunt you're talking about.

Fun fact, the shuttle weighed 4.5 million pounds at take off. No pickup truck is going to pull that...

Never said it wasn't worth having or anything about gas mileage. I was just saying that most people over estimate what their truck can haul particularly people like me that have a small truck. I have a ranger, not for the gas mileage. I have it because I don't want a bigger truck. I just don't like driving the bigger vehicle around.

You laughed at the question as to why someone would need a 1 ton because they wanted to haul a ton. I laughed with you. My guess is that most people do not realize how little volume of something rather heavy like dirt is. If they did, they wouldn't wonder why someone would want a one ton truck. I don't wonder why at all. I personally just don't have a need.

I didn't say anything about gas mileage. I think most people worry way too much about that. I filled up with gas this morning. I don't even know what I paid per gallon. I just don't pay attention. If I worried about the difference between 17 and 37 mpg, I'd have a lot more to worry about first.

On that note, my ranger has 180,000 miles and it is starting to show its age. I don't believe they make rangers any more. I really don't want anything bigger. I'd get the exact same thing if they still made them. Anybody have any suggests to replace a 4x4 extended cab ranger. I really don't even know what they alternatives are in that class. I don't really want to go up in size.

Nothing wrong with the 2 colorado's the guys at the county shop use and both of them trucks have over 250,000 miles on them.

So last day of the IronMan match, the first two relays the mirage was horrible. Shot a 184-4x and a 182-3x. Then on the 3rd relay the clouds came in and everything cleared up. Somehow pulled a 195-9x out of my ass. I'm satisfied.

Colorado. I love mine. My brother has the crew cab, which is nice, but I don't like giving up the bed space. I guarantee you IV had close to a ton of firewood in the back and it did just fine.

Not sure my truck will make it that long. That's why I'm going to start looking now. Nothing wrong with my truck, but it is definitely showing its age and would feel a bit uncomfortable driving off into the middle of nowhere in it. Lose that confidence and its time to get one that you have that confidence in.

I may end up getting sticker shock and say screw it. It can wait

I was talking about this with a guy at my hunting club. He wants to buy my Ranger when I sell it. I didn't tell him, but no freaking way I'm selling a truck with 180k on it to anyone that I know. It may be fine, but if it totally craps out 3 minutes after I sell it too him, what a potential headache for a few bucks.
