Its TheTonka
Thought I'd check things out over here. I am on a few other forums as well.
I got an'01 F350 CC LB 4x4 6-speed. It has an 80hp tune in the ECU from Jody, 4" Magnaflow from ITP, TN drop in from BWD(soon to be BB), and some other stuff. I use it primarily for towing my custom Universal Trailers Stacker. I DD my Suzuki DL1000.
As for me I am a systems engineer for an aerospace company and am responsible for production test. I am also a homebrewer and currently president of my homebrew club(Currenlty have an Amber ale on tap and a Blonde ale in the fermenter). I offroad and currently we have a Rhino and the boy has a TTR-50. I hope to get a bike or quad this year once I feel I am fully recovered from my shoulder surgery from last year. In a couple years I will be building a new crawler. I miss the crawling since I sold my ****** pickup a couple of years ago.
Anyway, thats me, I'm TheTonka!

Thanks guys. I don't plan on bombing my beast too much, but I know I will be building new motor in 100K-200K miles. At that point I am looking at either having what I have rebuilt of putting in a Forged Rod short block from DI. I am already looking at getting a set of AC injectors, since Ford specs the stock injector service life at 100K and IH at 200K and I am at 246K I am pretty sure mine are worn out. If I can last I may just hold out for some hybrids.
My ultimate goal will be this truck, with a Forged Rod block, hybrids, BB TN turbo, Spearco CAC, ITP fuel, F5, and a SVO setup to offset fuel costs(not much I can do about 8MPG towing my hauler).
