[AT] Ford F250 Diesel makes steam. UH - OH !!!

[Cecil Bearden]

I was at my local Ford dealership a while back looking at he new 08 
Super Duty trucks that came in.  An F350 was in the shop and almost 
every service procedure required removal of the Cab!!!  They made the 
cab come off quickly by quick attach wiring and mounts....  However it 
added 4 hours to every service bill..

I bought a 95 F350 power stroke because of the Power...  Now, the dealer 
re-flashed the chip and it has no power or mileage...

My 97 Exepdition needs plugs again after 30K miles since I did not 
install premium plugs.  It takes 8 hours to change them..  Changed coils 
twice..

My 02 F250 had 2 sets of plugs before I learned the value of premium plugs..

My next one will be assembled in a junkyard.  Then maybe I can get some 
service and mileage.
