The Ford trucks that come on to this site are just massive. I remember the first time I saw an F650 “pickup” truck, I was cruising around downtown with some friends. Then, we pulled up behind an F650 at a stop light. The truck was so big and so tall that I could not tell what it was exactly. I could not see the side of it and I really wanted to. So, we followed the truck around the lake. It was big, black, and had really tall stacks. Eventually the truck pulled over, and the owner was kind enough to let us look it over and take pictures.

Today we have Roberts F650 on the site, and I have to say, its awesome! The truck was purchased from Sunrise Ford in Redlands California. It was a special order from the dealer. This babe of a truck has a Caterillar C7 Acert 7.2 Inline six-cylinder turbocharged engine with 300 HP 860 lb-ft torque. Allison 3500 six-speed automatic transmission. Air Bag Suspension. 4 wheel air disc brakes which would sound so so cool. Twin 50 gallon side fuel tanks. Of course it has leather interior and all that good stuff as well.

Surprisingly, Robert was able to get a performance chip for this beast. Its an MP8 box from TS Performance. This increases the motor power to 400HP and 1,100 lb-ft.

Other customizations include Shelby Le Mans stripes to cab, bed and fuel tank covers. Custom side tank covers fabricated, painted and installed. Wheels and tires where added after purchase. Running lights and fog lights added. Custom tail lights. The truck has been autographed by Carroll Shelby, there is a signed metal plate on each fuel tank cover with Shelbys signature. Nice! ( Robert builds and restores Shelby Mustangs for a living. )

“I have a few Ford F350 crew cab duallies all power strokes. I wanted something that was different so here it is. The truck is as big as a house but drives so nice. I get almost 13 miles to the gallon. For such a big truck it sure can move. This truck gets as many looks as a Ferrari. I love to drive this truck. I will be adding a new leather interior, gauge pod and dash wood grain kit soon.”

When you need to put your house on wheels and drive it across the country, the typical Ford F-Series pickup is just not good enough. You need the Ford F-450 6.4L Diesel. Gary figured this out when he bought an Adrenaline Toy Hauler (House) . That is why he traded in his 2006 3/4 Chevy Duramax for this beautiful Ford F450 pickup.

“Truck is absolutely awesome and makes long hauls a breeze.” says Gary. Gary had the bed sprayed with Line-X Bedliner and installed a RollBak Tonneau Cover.

Todays Truck is a 2006 F-350 King Ranch Edition LWB 4×4 that is setup for work and play. This truck features a 6.0L Powerstroke Diesel Engine. Installed for more power and performance we have an AFE stage II and  Dual T309 SS Turbo back 4″ Exhaust with 6″ black chrome tips.

For the Exterior John installed a Chrome bug shield, Chrome tow hooks, Harley headlights, Smoked Clearance Lens, Smoked LED turn signals, Smoked LED tail lights and a 60″ LED rear tail light bar with reverse LEDs.

Under the truck  John had 4WheelParts install Dual SS front shocks with nitrogen reservoirs, a dual SS steering stabilizer setup and rear SS shocks with nitrogen reservoirs. This F350 Powerstroke sits on 40×15.50/22 rockstars. Custom sprayed in bedliner with a KR logo in arizona beige color.

Today’s truck gets the “most stuff” award. Definitely one of the most unique trucks that we have featured on Truck Profile. We have a 2003 7.3L Ford SuperDuty Powerstroke that makes a stock truck look like a P50 Microvehicle (can of tuna…maybe smaller). Scott purchased this truck brand new in 2003 from Uftring Motor Mall in East Peoria IL.

“I bought the truck in 03 because diesel fuel was cheaper at the time. Then i added a lift kit and wheels and started to show it at car shows and would win first place, then i was hooked. As all of you can see i did not stop adding to the truck and still today with over $60,000 in it, Im not done.

Everyone asks,  “have you ever taken it off road mudden?”. Yes, i have! The first year i got it, went out ditch bang en’ and snow drift en’ with mud and snow jam packed under the entire body, frame and motor compartment. It took 2 weeks of cleaning and detailing. This truck now does not even see rain or dirt. It is for show only and i drive it too about 30 car -truck shows a year.”

As for performance… “It has a heavy duty waste gate & wicked wheel from dieselsite.com. K&N filter, 4″ polished stainless cool dual exhaust MBRP, Hypertech programmer, and a few little goodies to help me get 70 psi of fuel pressure and 30lbs of boost. The egt’s stay right around 600.”

On the outside we have… “Roll Bars, Bull Bar, PIAA Lights, all Chrome Bumper, Ram Air Hood, Lift Kit and Nitto Mud Grapplers.”

Scott does ALL of the work and would not even let the dealership touch his truck for the cam sensor recall. The custom flames under the wheel wells took Scott 200 hours, were made from .250″ flat stock, cut, filed and buffed to perfection.

This Ford Diesel has about 50 1st place trophies include, Best of Show, Best Interior, Best FORD and Mayors choice.

Scott would like to thank APM Ram air hood, MBRP exhaust, Westin bull bar, Road Max auto polished grill, Boze tow hooks, Recon accessories, Vertical doors, Weld racing, K&N filter, discount tire direct, GoRhino, 101 corvette, e-gauges, Weld racing, Fabtech for their contributions to his truck.

Walt purchased his F350 in Pennsylvania. It was a former New Jersey state truck that was used in the clean up of the twin towers. This truck was bought for work during the week and play on the weekends.

Most all of the work and modifications to the truck were made by Walt. He was even pulled over once just so that the trooper could compliment the truck. Here is what he has:

Performance Parts:

• Air Intake
• Updated injectors
• Fuel regulator mod
• Banks six-gun w\pda
• T\C lock up switch
• High idle mod
• Straight exhaust before the tire
• ATS Transmission and five star torque converter

Walt still does not know what his 1/4 Mile time is because he broke his transmission at the track! Which, is probably why he is now running an ATS.

For the Exterior we have:

• Sun visor lights
• 20inch diamo rims
• Nitto mudgrapplers
• 3inch lift
• Smoked tail lights & headlights
• Blue turn signals
• LOTS of lights
• Pin striping
• Window tint
• Rhino liner

On the interior, he has:

• A Pioneer head unit
• 2 12inch subs
• CB radio
• LOTS of switches
• PDA
• Blue gauge lights

One time Walt went to rescue one of his friends’ F250 out of a mud bog. They all said, “Nobody has ever made it through the bog”. So Walt proved them wrong by going through the bog in 2WD! (Successfully)

Its a fine looking rig, Walt! Personally, I’m a big fan of the lights. Nothing like lighting the road up all around you while traveling at night.

This truck was a smooth ride and fast. Always, I was being challenged by some ricer and this truck could beat most of them, even when pulling a 7000 pound, loaded trailer. No problem for this truck to haul vehicles across States and even over the Continental Divide. One time, I was hauling a truck down to Phoenix and coming to a steep incline, all the cars and pickups were rushing to get around me (even though there were two lanes on each direction). Half way up the ten-mile hill, I had passed up most the cars and was still going strong by the time we reached the top. In fact, I was at least a mile ahead of each of them.When we came to the next big hill, nobody rushed to get around me!

This truck will always be my favorite. My son and I took a couple trips across the States in it to get to Ohio, where we have family. My wife and daughter would fly out and we would drive out. Two days - 2230 miles! We would bring the girls back with us and it would be a four day
trip.

The dually allows this truck to pull heavy loads and the truck doesn’t really have to work very hard to pull it. And, the dual wheels also make the truck ride like a Cadillac. This will always be one of my favorite trucks - and probably will always be at the top of the list.
