They fixed it all right. That engine doesn't seem to be available
anymore. They list a 6.2L V8 flex-fuel gasser and a 6.7L V8 diesel.

There are a lot of new RV's on a Ford chassis with the Triton V-10 engine. I believe all the 2013
Georgetown by Forest River, for example, come with the V-10 engine. Here's an example:

Yeah, but it's a very good hauling machine. With 360 HP and 460 ft/lb

of torque, it'll move stuff. You just don't get that for free if you

have to go gas instead of diesel.



-----------------------------------------



Ford's V10 is one of the few gasoline engines that has the torque

ratings of some similar sized diesels. It's too bad it developed a

reputation for spitting out spark plugs.



I didn't know that.



The question then becomes does the increased gasoline cost and spark

plug remediation cost more or less than the cost of the vehicle with a

diesel engine?

Good question since diesel engines have their own, unique sets of issues.

Yeah, the cost of diesel fuel!!

Other than that, I've been very pleased with mine.

The LL Bean store in Freeport is well worth a visit. It is as much a
cultural icon as it is a store. The only thing I've seen that even
comes close is one of the really big Bass Pro stores like we have here
in south Florida.


Seriously, not trying to troll, but I have never been to anything like
you describe. Can you be more specific? And of course the most important
question, is "is there food there"? LOL!

BPS here in Ft Myers has a pretty good restaurant, a couple of big
aquariums and occasionally they have little product shows.
The parking lot is full of BOATS

There I actually used the "B" word!

They are a Tracker/Mercury dealer.

It is a 2 story megamart for sportsmen with all sorts of outdoorsy
things. (fishing, hunting, camping, hiking, boating, pull toys/skis
and outdoor yard games)


There's a nice BPS just south of BWI Airport in Hanover, MD, that's very
similar, in a huge mall. No restaurant in the BPS store, though. Haven't
been up there in a while, heard there's a casino near the mall now, so
probably won't go back.

Wait until they build the new casino at National Harbor, just south of
the Woodrow Wilson bridge on the Maryland side.

I predict that the casinos in the rest of Maryland will migrate to
National Harbor within 3 to 5 years.

PG County needs something to entice it's government into more graft and corruption. Hell, it's
almost as bad as DC, which some total fools want to see granted statehood.

Are the morons who run your state still planning to force women into

I did get the new fenders for no charge and I had it rustproofed by

Bondco but there was a hole in my tailgate before it was two years old.

I kept it for five years and becaused I lived about 18 -20 miles out

According to this, they were Consumer Reports most recalled car in

You stupid jackass...I purchased a 1977 model...after Consumer Reports

They did and that's a good thing?

Who's making excuses, MiniMan??
I simply state the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.
Got a job yet...paying down those numerous judgements, overdue taxes, hospital bills..etc, etc.?

Gee, you could ask Deadbeat Harry the same thing.....

Hope you learned something from that.

I'm betting not.


The funniest running gag on rec.boats is how you and several others
make negative comments about the possessions of others but never or
hardly ever discuss your own possessions or, of course, post photos of
them.
Did that come up in therapy, deadbeat? You got it wrong and defined
yourself.

Most of us are smart enough not to take pictures of the boxes that our
possessions came in proving that we really do shop at Walmart and Home
Depot.
