Goodbye T4R'rs. The truck is going, going, gone.

[9Hooker]

Gents,
I just parted ways (or will this weekend) with my 10 T4R. Hopefully the new owner will find the forum as helpful as I did.

I've moved from this, a 10 SR5 with 30,500 miles on it:

To this, an 08 F350 (diesel power) with 57,000 miles on it:

And this:

It's been fun guys. I hope the new '14 T4R's grow on everyone as much as the '10's did.

I'll hang out for a bit just in case I have some extra T4R bits here and there.

Parting shot:

well that a no brainer. the 4runner would never pull that much less keep the front wheels on the ground.

had a friend around the corner swap his 2yr old tundra to the same vehicle to pull his 26/27 footer. yours looks like a 32 footer.

Nice setup. 350s are beasts!

6.4L are Great engines.

2 bits of advice that will save you tons of money.

1. Completely change the coolant Now. Then buy the test kit and test it every 10-15k. Its crucial.
2. Run cetane booster ALL THE TIME . RBP makes a good one, other companies are fine too. But the engine was built to run on 46 cetane and most fuel is about 38 cetane. this is why there were so many EGR issues with the 6.0L fuel.

Bonus point. Dont run Biofuel it does terrible things to the insides of the fuel system when it molds

Hope you got an extended warranty on that Raptor !

Well don't let the door hit ya in the ass on the way out. LOL. Just kidding. Good luck with your new rig.

Very nice. Maybe I will see you on thedieselstop.com

I've scheduled the coolant flush @ the dealer, just to get it done. $120, can't beat it considering all the flush-rinse-flush-rinse-flush-rinse steps I've seen on the powerstroke forums.

I've got ordered:
coolant filter kit
new fuel filters

spartan, EGR delete, and DPF delete next on the list.

I'm sorry, do you mean the MIG-28!? lol ok that's enough Top Gun for one day. It was driving me crazy trying to figure out which aircraft that was. The F-5 is an awesome aircraft and honestly I would trade my 4R for a day with one. GL in your new vehicle endeavor. Thank you for your service. :cheers:

Your use of "venerable" caught my attention, so I read up on the F-5 here:

Northrop F-5 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

What an impressive airplane. Thousands were built, and I counted at least 32 countries that do/did own it.
