Guess i am way to old school , Best truck i ever had once i got all the bugs out was my 88 ford F 350 4X4 cab and chassis . 460 gas burner with a 5 speed and 4.10 gear . I drug a 28 footer behind it running all over Ohio Indiana and the eastern half of Ill. and the loads i would stack on that trailer after a fun day at sales temper tested it . Yea i did cheat abit on some changes in the engine but no performance parts were bought , and she would haul the mail . If you know old Ford engines you can do things to the OLD IRON blocks . A lot of the parts used in them go WAY back when engines ran , one must just do some refinements to the OLD way . Then i got the bug for a diesel and i went to the dark side and bought a Dodge with a real diesel not A converted gasser and indirect injection why have 8 doing the job a 6 will do and over the years everyone has played in the V 8 diesels and all the smart ones went back to 6's to get the job done . As for a slush box transmission Nah myself i'll stick with GEAR my right arm can still move a stick or two and like the old IRON HAULERS use to say , It takes IRON to move Iron . During my time as a Mechanic /TECH what ever i rebuilt many automatic transmissions , reworked many for the guys wanting to play on the drag strips , even had two in two different pick ups that i plowed snow with and yea had to rebuild both of them and they never let you down while they were parked . then my last plow truck was a 4 speed , yep a little slower lots of pedal pushen in a long day of plowing but ya know what i nevver had to rebuild that trans mission or replace the clutch , oh wait it was and OLD school lever clutch with a borg and beck pressure plate not one of these now junk diafram finge clutches with the throw out bearing riding on them all the time. No hyd master cylinder no slave cylinder just and adjustable rod and free play . ran that 79 till it got totaled in 90 .

Today's Featured Article - Old Time Threshing - by Anthony West. A lovely harvest evening late September 1947, I was a school boy, like all school boys I loved harvest time. The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c ...
