      I have bought things and sold things to some "shady" people....I have also had a few good experiences=P 

      I have definitely dealt with some weirdos but for the most part I have had a pretty positive experience buying and selling.  Most of the negative experiences were with people that didn't actually buy something from me anyways.

        I pushed him for the 3.5 ecoboost but his mindset is that all of his v8's made it over 200k so thats what hes gonna stick with. Turbos scare him and ge still remembers early unreliable turbo technology. I preached the benefits but hes old school.

        I don't blame him. New technology is always scary and its smart to let them work the bugs out before buying.

        The fuel economy on the 3.5eco Wasn't anything too impressive. I am sure the 5.0 isn't far behind it.

        If I could afford it and wanted to deal with emissions. A new half ton would be plenty of truck. the new ones have tow ratings of 10,000lbs. and the pay load on them is ridiculous. back in the 90s and early 2000s half tons were only rated for 5500lbs of towing.

        IMO. I don't really think any residential user really needs a new 3500 or a diesel at that. i mean. the new 2015 Ford 6.7 is at 440hp and 860ft lbs. I don't think any home user will be pushing that truck to its limit unless they go out of their way and try to.

                                    Fun game idea.  Build your car as close to what it is on the 3D thing, then go to the art museum and try to duplicate the picture.

                                    Yes?

                                          I am boxing up my 17x9 replica style 5's to ship them off to their new home this week.

                                          Something I dont have to think twice about tracking, in a 15x8.

                                          Planning on getting some Star Specs unless someone has something else I should consider
