Sounds like it would be a waste of good bourbon.

It's the good stuff for sure. A quick downed shot puts an Irishman on the floor. Only Rednecks would be able to shoot it down, those who drink Moonshine that is. It's Sipping Whiskey!

You guys are being tough on those poor Aussies. Next thing you will be cursing their Saito engines.

Oh only cursing RE Saito is not having enough of them!

Only OF curses a Saito, specifically the 125.

I can relate to that.

I'm a bit of 'cupboard drinker' myself - one drink, and I can feel it. Two drinks... and anyone can... LoL

97.5" with the tailgate closed, Ford is only mfr that now makes the Super Cab with an 8 foot bed on the 150 sized truck. I'd love to have the new Dodge 1500 with the 3.0 litre Diesel and an extended cab, with an 8' bed, Dodge no do.

Anything less than a diesel and a 8' bed is considered a toy truck to me.
No toy trucks here. and FORD is still number ONE

I have a 2007 Ford Ranger with a gas V6 and 7' bed. I guess it's a toy truck; even though it took me, my wife and our camping gear to Jasper, Alberta, Canada and back to south Texas last July.

had one of those once and yep it was like a toy.

Dave
that echoboost is ok but diesel's are just ment to pull a load day in and day out. As far as torque my 7.3 puts out a little more then that.

Is this a new Saito engine?

That is why we appreciate fords over other types. It's because they are as good as the great SAITO's

Hey Crunch, did you drive to SIG and pick up your Rascal? I want to know the size of the firewall.

SIG has been calling pre-orders. Still on the fence about it. Need to know the dimensions of the firewall to decide.

Gawd... I really hate it when the fancy Fly Boy up front pulls the pin...and forgets to open the "passenger door".

Head-butting that perpex with retro's under you ass really sucks...

I think I found an alternative to the FG-36 for my B-25. NGH-38CC 4 stroke Gas. I can get two of them with shipping and taxes for what one FG-40 costs. No where near the Saito quality, but you do get what you pay for. From what I read they are pretty reliable once broken in, and that is what matters most. Going to do some more research before I pull the trigger on them though. I do know that they are not a chinese knockoff, they are a chinese designed engine. Unlike Magnum and ASP, which are OS knockoffs, these are one of a kind. (though I do see some Saito in them)
