immediately after this picture, his cam phasers went out. as he was pulling to the side of the road, cv joints broke. Then, after getting towed to the stealership, they suggested he goes ahead and change his plugs before he gets too high in mileage, which results in all 8 breaking.

Haha bconnaway, that made me laugh.

Maybe this was the warning that we are going to be getting such ****ty weather here in Wisconsin? haha, otherwise, the truck is still running great

I should probably take it in for a tune-up, just to be sure.

Also, if you want another 6, the engine is the 4.2L V6...

When I had my 2002 F150 back in 2006 I made 111,111.1 miles and I looked over I was passing mile marker 111 on Interstate 10. I thought, man what a coincidence. It amazed me and kept me somewhat entertained for about 30 seconds. When I got to work I looked at the calender and saw that the date was 1/11

3 months later the rearend took a dump when one of the bearings seized up so I traded it in for my 06.

It would have exploded

I remember hitting 66,666.66 and waiting for 66,667 thinking something would fail on the truck
