Getting back on track.....

I have the DiabloSport chip in my '02 F250 with the V-10 and I love it. Yes, it makes the shifts firm at part throttle, and hard at WFO. Yes, it increased performance dramatically. Yes, I get 2.5 MPG better after the chip (Wife drives it too, and she doesn't have leadfoot disease). And sadly, yes, it requires premium fuel.

All in all a great bolt-on for the money. The wife even likes it enough that the she wants one in her V-10 Excursion now!

My friend snuck a Superchip into his wife's 4.6 Expedition without telling her. First time she drove it, she came back into the house and immediately asked him what he had done to the car. The improved power and shifting are very noticeable - she liked it, BTW.

Man! Any excuse for Okie to post a pic of that truck! :silly:

Nice though, mine's blue. :)

I've got the camper/towing/8800GVWR package and the front sits level like yours. Is there an extra leaf in the front or what? I looked at a V-10 longbed too and the front was noticably lower. No camp/tow/8800 IIRC.

It's the "X" springs. Pretty sure the camper package has the same setup as the plow package.
