Hopefully this will be okay for my first post, but figured those of you getting into the Bronco community might want to get a taste of some of the fun we deal with haha To start this off, for those of you who didn't hear, amidst other mishaps, our trailer roof ripped off while on the way to Super Celebration West and a little after that, the F350 totally konked out. This was just Part 1 of the epic adventure to Super Celebration so if you haven't checked it out already, here's a link. Hope you all enjoy! And stay tuned for part 2 which I'll post in this thread!

If it wasn’t for bad luck you’d have no luck at all.
That’s all part of the adventure, good to see y’all keep a positive attitude about the whole thing.

Kudos to you and your gang for not letting anything stop you.

What was the story on the F-350? Did the motor blow?

With that much oil I’d say that power stoke is toast. I can’t tell if that was a 7.3 or a 6.0.
Edit: looking at the radiator that looks like the 7.3

So what we've heard at this point is something having to do with the cylinder. The shop seems to be dragging their feet but we aren't really in a rush to get it back. It's the 7.3 so it has kicked around for a long time but with a lot of towing miles, it's just come to that time lol we picked up a new F550 in Idaho and snagged a new trailer. We're here in Townsend, TN right now at Super Celebration East so everything worked out.

Thought I had it had with a blowout on the trailer there and 2 more going home. The trailer was borrowed!, At least the roof stayed on.

I thought I retired, then I started restoring my Bronco!
