I may disagree with that "run circles" comment since i own a Duramax Crewcab but the last point made is a very valid one. That is one of the reasons we bought our first Ford product this year when we were looking for a new mid sized SUV for my wife.

As I recall, the government no longer "owns" General Motors, having divested itself of all GM ownership by selling off the remaining GM stock they previously controlled. I believe this took place starting shortly after the first of this year. As f.monroe said, I too really like my crewcab Duramax! But, then again, I'm a lifelong GM guy!!

**superflysteiny** · 07-07-2013, 11:59 AM

All in fun boys. I own a new Cadillac cts v which is a gm product. As far as ford vs Chevy truck diesel I have to say I love Chevy but the ford makes a better diesel now. When I say now I mean 2011 forward. The new fords make more hp and tq then any other diesel on the market. Older ford trucks had engine issues. I loved my 08 duramax but I sold it so when I bought a new truck I went with the ford.

Well, I bet the Duramax's rear fenders stay on better!

Lol the are much larger would have been more damage on a Chevy

**Tom Vogel** · 07-08-2013, 09:35 AM

I think Id buy Ford just because the government doesnt own it... just sayin. And I currently own a Duramax... which I love.

**youngrodder** · 07-08-2013, 09:45 AM

Eric-

I see according to EBay that you are thinning the herd. Don't do it......JK
Selfishly, I would love to see you put your finishing touches on the 40 Ford.

Good luck with the sale. It is another top notch project.

Marc

**superflysteiny** · 07-08-2013, 03:29 PM

Ya ford is for sale it won't reach the reserve so you won't have to worry

Just so you guys no I got a crazy good deal on the ford so I bought it. It was one year old 20000 miles I paid 47000 if it would have been a duramax I would have done the same.

A deal is a deal. That is why I own a Dodge truck, and previously owned a ford.

That being said. Youre my new favorite builder on here.

Truck looks amazing. Wish I could have gone to Brothers to check it out. Acutally, your only an hour or so from me!

Quick question though. Where did you get your dimple dies? Ive read through your thread a dozen times and havent seen any mention of it.

**superflysteiny** · 07-09-2013, 06:22 PM

Thank you and I bought my dimple dye set from tricktools.com If you ever want to drive to the shop to see the truck in person please let me know.

**CC69Rat** · 07-09-2013, 06:48 PM

I'd really like to see how those dimple dies work. They give off such a cool look.

There is nothing to them they are easy to use. I could make a video if you like

Gus350 · 07-11-2013, 09:14 AM

What size die did you use?

**superflysteiny** · 07-11-2013, 11:23 AM

I used different sizes. 1 and 3/4. I used 3 inch in the bed

The old school Chevy's have more style than most old school Fords, but the new Fords are sharp looking. I bought a '13 F250 Platinum diesel a few months ago. The thing is a beast & it has some serious comfort.
Tootsie is looking amazing.

Just be careful! Speed holes are more addicting than Crack, and there is no cure.
