Lets get voting! :yeah:

im stuck between a rock and hard place, a beautiful murdered out excursion with beautiful women or my first vehicle (bronco) with a diesel swap lookin right ?... :scare2: :scare2: :scare2:

We actually got more entries than I though we would! Good looking rigs to everyone!

That's one damn sexy excursion

I think the Excursion is getting vote because of them hoes in front of it :)

Should've put a few of my bikini washers with the Suburban :) hehehehe

yeah tough to compete with pics with girls in them:duh3:

got to vote for the BC boy!!!

soooo close :argh:

o boy good to see the liberty diesels are killing it!!! hahaha

AT least dad's not coming in last :)

This took a quick U turn though... i was sure "The hoes" were taking this crown :D

The only way that Excursion could get any better is if it had a real (Cummins) motor in it...

Regardless, it still got my vote (and not because the ladies)! :pca1:

I have to say I am hurt some of you have gone to face book to get votes...

Also... Note one of the "ho's" as some of you keep saying is the owner and person who did all the mods...

ME!

Seems there are a lot of votes from people with 0 threads and 0 posts. Might be time to weed though the real members, and the fakes.

I thought it seemed like a lot of votes from last month :s: Diesel Bombers we can't even run an honest contest :s::s::s:

Nah, cummins is overplayed and over rated. The only engine swap should be a 6.4 but why when a nice 7.3 is already installed.

Very nice ride!:tu:

Voted!! Go cdiesel!:jump:

Polls closed, please bear with us as we sort out this situation. We will announce the winner as soon as we can.

Sorry that i did offend you dear, it was just a figure of speech and nothing ill was meant by it...

These fake-melotan friends of yours do not charm me however...

---AutoMerged DoublePost---

You have to be PowerJoking !

a B series will beat any Powerstroke hands down in reliability...

DeStroking a Ford is the best thing that could happen, and that 6.4 is not that much better than your previous 6.0 POS !

7.3 is the best motor they had, but it will NEVER be better than a B series Cummins... EVER !

Counting out the #53 blocks.... but they aren't even that prone to fail...

What a close finish! Thank you to everyone who voted. Especially for the 41 votes my rig received. I'm proud of my grocery-getter and wouldn't trade it for anything.
Congratulations to January's Truck of the Month.

47 and 41 votes :humm: I didn't think we had that many members participating on the site :humm:

My husband said the same thing. Then said the Bronco should just win it...What a shit head :bat:

hey I'll take it!!!
i always thought my rig is the best, just kind of nice that at least a few agreed with me:c:

Says the guy who clearly didn't read/watch/see the diesel power challenge of 2012 huh?

Really nice rig, love it!

I really like yours as well! Nice ride!

Congrats to Phillip

Those are 1000hp-1200hp trucks with many custom built parts. Those trucks are not expected to last. From a reliability stand point, the 12v cummins is one and the 7.3 powerstroke is number two. When reliability is discussed, a 6.0 and 6.4 are at that bottom. Ill admit the 6.0 got alot of bad flack from the earlier motors that rolled out but enough people have had problems with them that its common knowledge that they can be problamatic. Same as the 24v Cummins because of the VP-44 injection pump. Difference is it takes one piece of equipment to fix that and I dont have to lift the cab to install it. I know some 6.0 owners are very sensitive so I tried to be as nice as possible.:pca1:

Remember you can want power. reliability, and low cost but you can only have 2 out of three. :tu::c:
