2010 6.4 I bulletproofed

Nice! I had an 08’ 6.4 I deleted, studded and a new beefed up towing turbo after the second set of Up pipes split from the early government DPF BS regen at roughly 50k miles.
That truck was a rocket beast! Sold it @158k miles. It was a 3/4 ton and I needed a 1ton payload for my new 5er TH I was getting so I bought the 15’ Platinum.

08’ 6.4

What year ford? On my ‘16 I dumped all that plastic intercooler plumbing crap the minute it got home from the dealership and replaced it with a Rudy’s diesel aluminum kit. That was 90k ago.

You mean this place?

Yeah

the intercooler kits aren’t related to emissions defeating.

The feds since days of Biden have come down absolutely like a ton of bricks on ANY tuner company and reseller that makes or sells emissions deletion kits for diesel trucks.

Rudy’s back in the days was THE place to get your aftermarket Ford diesel performance parts.

They are a shell of themselves now just like most of the tuner companies as well.

I’m at a crossroads on my F350 as it’s at 90k mi and the regens are becoming more frequent..about double what they used to be. It still can be deleted yet if you know where to look…or do I let it soldier on and replace the DPF in 40 k or so. Cost is the same either way.

If the windbag wins…I doubt I’ll ever have a chance again even in my red state of SD.

Yea F the EPA and the Environmentalist wackos.
I have t deleted my trucks since i did it in 09’ with that truck above. I used the XRT pro from H&S back then when it was basically ok to get and before the Wacko’s got involved.
Was too much BS after that to delete my 15’ you couldnt buy it. I could go underground to a few ahops I knew, but If i had an issue I was screwed without the tuner in hand so Ive just bought Banks stuff to get performance from my diesels.

We went to top of the world, it was Mrs. Ridinfool call. I'm sure @TripleB will have plenty of pics and vids soon.

Since we have hijacked the M.O.M. thread and we aren't in the PUB I won't say what I think about the E.P.A. or the DoJ.

A huge thanks to everyone who helped put this on. Despite the suboptimal weather, I think we all still managed to have a great time; I know I did.

@TripleB Thanks for the expert guiding; never a dull moment. I always have a great time on your half day rides. And thanks again to you and Mrs. BBB for the accommodations offer. Had I stayed last night, I'd have definitely taken you guys up on that.

@futzin @Red500 @KyGal83 @CousinEddie Dorothy/Martha/Kim, thank you guys again for being an awesome crew to hang out with. Wish I could have stayed longer. Stupid storm...

@906UP @Coeus @gparks @Ohio4x4 @JACKAL @Scoop @NTCPrezJB @EMAW @JayPo @GovtMule @Vondy @Hoosier1960 @JenElio @Blownzuki and anyone else that I missed, thank you all for toughing out the weather and making for some awesome memories. @Ridinfool , wish you could have been here buddy.

And finally, thank you to my p5 for making it through one more trip without completely falling apart. I'm not sure how you do it.

Casualties:
(1) Windshield wiper blade
(1) front axle boot
My assumption that a tank of fuel would last me more than 80 miles.

We made it home. Red500 left to help the squad. We have 2 other counties that are here to help us with all the calls. We also got a message saying the nolichucky dam may collapse anytime. They are saying if you live downstream of the dam you need to evacuate now. We are above it so we are ok. The power has been out since 2 pm.

I had to leave too. We are gearing up to come help search for victims. Not sure when I’m leaving, but I’m home, unloaded, and reloaded with the stuff I’ll need.

What a weekend.
