RowdyRebel Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 I used to be a Ford guy....until Ford quit putting manual transmissions in their trucks. You can't even order one as an option. As much as I like Ford trucks, I'd rather drive a Dodge with a manual transmission than a Ford with an automatic. For the time being, I've got my old Fords...but eventually, I'll wear 'em out & need a newer truck....and I gotta have a manual transmission.

Maddog13407 Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 i know something before opening my mouth. id rather drive our 99 F350 regular cab anyday with 230,000 miles on it at work than our loaded lariat extended cab piece of shit 2007 with gutless 6.0 in it. im a GM man. have a soft spot for 53-56 ford pickups alone with the looks of the 60's and 70's fords. have heard both good and bad about the 6.0/ think it depends on what day of the week it was built. it is no comparison the the 7.3 liter at all trust me as we could put a John Deere 450 dozer on a trailer behind the 7.3 and pull it with ease with 230,000 miles on it.. the 6.0 id never think of it. just my opinion, you asked for them, we gave haha Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/28760-i-need-opinions/page/2/#findComment-150547 Share on other sites More sharing options...
storkmack Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 I am against car payments of any kind. I would run what you have untill the wheels fall off. If anything, put a pu box on it. You know what you have there, compared to buying some other guys problems. - Brad 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/28760-i-need-opinions/page/2/#findComment-150558 Share on other sites More sharing options...

They offered the manual up to the 09 or 10 model. You could upgrade to a "used 09" and still get the clutch pedal. Ive heard the dodge manual is on the way out as well, man I hope not.Ben Quote 1962 B733 L cab Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/28760-i-need-opinions/page/2/#findComment-150594 Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomastractorsvc Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 take it to carmax and get a 7 day quote. A take off pick up bed is 1k or less depending who you get it from, then sell the dump body, you would be ahead. Don't forget the money needed to bring back one of them back from Texas and hope you don't have problems since they are not going to be under warranty Quote Robert"I reject your reality and substitute my own."
