7.3 Godzilla - The Dirthead Tow Pig

This week we go over my 2020 Ford F350 Dually. This truck is rad, Tows like a dream with the 7.3l Godzilla motor under the hood. Let's get the oil changed and head down south to Moab.

"Like everything I own, I wasn't able to leave it entirely stock." Dave has never been more relatable

[@thedirtheadshed]

Can’t leave nothing alone!

@@thedirtheadshed My wife will grumble about me customizing every vehicle, computer, and even tools that I own, and then I turn to her and say, "Why can't you just order what's on the menu without adding 15 special instructions?" That usually gets her - lol

[@ck3561]

Dang big block dually? Makes me feel like it’s the 90’s again. Thanks guys for the memory lane.

[@thedirtheadshed]

You aren’t lying

[@jonathantaylor6926]

Basically the EPA built this truck. The diesels are way too expensive and complicated.

[@hoosierdude7102]

I appreciate that you, Dave, are a genuine dude. You do not come across as arrogant or judgmental, just a man that likes and knows a lot of stuff. I also appreciate that your rigs aren’t top-of-the-line fanciness; what is needed and down to earth. Thank you!

[@thedirtheadshed]

Thank you. I’m stoked that so many people seem to appreciate the same things as I do.

[@bcole505]

I really like the truck. The 7.3 make sense without the expense of a diesel.

[@thedirtheadshed]

It’s a good one

[@Kiefel95]

Love how it’s like a modern day version of the legendary 460! Big fan of this new 7.3 Godzilla and also a big fan of the ol’ big block 460

[@thedirtheadshed]

Same!

[@matthewbond5028]

It really is a modern 460 I loved my 92 F250 with a 460. And my 7.3 takes me back to my 460 days.

[@eddiepatterson5025]

I like the old 460 reference to the 7.3 Godzilla as power wise which means Ford did it right for a change. Thank you Dave for your input on the 7.3 Godzilla that means a lot.

[@thedirtheadshed]

Go test drive one

[@AnonymousJester]

More fabrication videos on any of your projects would be cool. You are great at explaining things and throwing in tips and tricks

[@thedirtheadshed]

Gotta get back on that. Been bogged down with other stuff lately

[@UlyssesJurado]

The fact that you talk about the high cost of keeping up with the Jones’ and buy only what you need is very refreshing. Even though you’re a fabrication genius, mere mortals can relate to your life and choice. Thanks for the breath of fresh air

[@thedirtheadshed]

Thanks for watching!

[@Wrenchingandadventuring]

I have a 7.3 but mine burns diesel. I’m always impressed on how you keep all this going with kids and a family. I can barely afford to keep 1 jeep running. Keep it up for us little guys that are trying to balance everything

[@kensporalsky3784]

Those new gassers out tow our old 7.3 diesels by a wide margin. Unless you’ve fully built and modified yours.

[@dimitrid268]

@@kensporalsky3784 It's interesting to see what will happen to this truck after 20 years, considering that is the youngest 7.3 PSD you can get now, 2003. Mine's L99, beaten and abused by the previous owner, still works fine. Modern trucks are way ahead in terms of performance, but in terms of reliability, I'd go for an old diesel any day of the week or an older truck in general. I like when I can fix my truck myself.

[@cliffordmontana4562]

@@dimitrid268 I like old diesels too, but the new ones are INSANELY complicated. If you like working on your trucks, you’d love the 7.3 Godzilla. There’s TONS of room under the hood, even with dual batteries and alternators. I’m ordering new plug wires and I can change them myself in no time. Can’t do simple work to a modern diesel.

[@dimitrid268]

@@cliffordmontana4562 Yea, I know that engine is not brand new and has been around for a while, pretty sure it's not bad, but it's the fuel consumption why I can't own one) My previous gas car 5.5 in a G class did 10 MPG in the city.

[@cliffordmontana4562]

@@dimitrid268 My 7.3 with 4.30 gears and heavy 35x12.50 off-road tires gets about 13 in the winter, over 14 in summer, and about 16mpg on the highway at about 68mph. Not great but not terrible.

[@brianpenland973]

Motortrend just isn't as good without Dirt every day. I'm glad you're on youtube. Love all the projects you've done so far. Can't wait to see what's next.

[@thedirtheadshed]

I appreciate the support!!

[@AJdoesit]

Huge fan of the videos showing small improvements to the tow rig setup. Half the time the trip and prep is just as enjoyable as the journey itself.

[@thedirtheadshed]

Exactly

[@tallbozo]

Thanks for keeping it real, Dave, It's why we love you and what you do!

[@thedirtheadshed]

Thanks! I’m enjoying the KZbin

[@GarrettMatt]

Great walk around on the trailer. Like everyone else at the time, ended up with a carson trailer. Mine is 16 years old with the original deck! I always thought this cheap trailer would be temporary for me, but has been far more reliable than any trailer I owned before. For a little angle iron trailer, it rock. Couple upgrade I did that were totally worthwhile: - added triangle corner gussets to the deck to keep the flex down. Straps stopped getting loose after that - added morride shackles. Way beefier and stoped the spring slop - added brakes to the back axle so I have 4 wheel brakes And best of all: I added a 14k weight distribution hitch. Even with a solid 3/4 ton truck, that hitch makes braking much more stable, especially since I tow my crawler on tight mountain roads.

[@thedirtheadshed]

You’re dialed in!

[@jake1021]

I repainted two trailers this year, sand blasting, and new decks, and new tires new hinges and latches, and boxes and winches🙄. Fml

[@thedirtheadshed]

That’s a lot of thankless work

[@jake1021]

@@thedirtheadshed eh one was for my step dad, I'm sure he'll be thankful when spring gets here and he picks it up! Smart move with the sliders btw my steps on my SDs are always bent or not working in the power step version here in the snow.

[@crbourret]

I went from a 2011 Ram with the 6.7 Cummins to a 2021 F350 XL with the 7.3 Godzilla engine with the snow plow package. I've been very happy with it. Like you I just went for the base model, low options, because I just use it to plow snow, tow my car trailer and bring my trash to the dump.

[@thedirtheadshed]

Same same!

[@DS-gv5fs]

Electronic will always break down. I have a 2016 Ram 2500. Did the same thing. Give me the basics and keep the fancy stuff. It is there to WORK.

[@brendonhearn8778]

Anything entry level, every now and again is great. Always good to see how someone else does "simple" projects. Safe travels.

Thanks. Got to keep it real. Not a fan of debt

Love my srw xl 350. 3900lbs payload out of a single wheel

Hey Dave I was the one who recommended the secret snowplow package leveling kit 😂. 👋

[@thedirtheadshed]

Much appreciated!

[@SasquatchBunyan]

I really liked this episode. The tow rig is really nice for what you wanted. I agree w/ less tech, and I say that as a tech guy for a couple/few decades. Fun to watch your builds and progress through things. Love the, “You can do this at home.” approach. Cheers!

[@thedirtheadshed]

Much appreciated. Thanks for following along

[@717UT]

Great video, awesome rundown of your pickup, trailer video would be awesome. Always like having these videos by you Dave. You're just like every practical dude out there and it's nice having a kindred spirit that we can enjoy your videos together.

[@richardharvey8939]

Great video. Only Ford I would consider are these new 7.3 gassers.

[@thedirtheadshed]

Nice. I like some of the cars too

[@TheJsoco]

I'm excited to see the trailer rebuild video (s). I love watching you fabricate and repair stuff the fabricstion is always like art

[@thedirtheadshed]

Lots of interest in trailer videos!

[@tomshunpiker4554]

Great comments on the truck. I’m happy with the 7.3 as well and I think about the easiest truck to change the oil on Ive ever owned. As a warning to those that go F250. The rear springs are less than stellar. I’ll be putting bags on mine soon. Have a safe trip!

[@thedirtheadshed]

That is so true. Oil changes are easy and cheap

[@ALMX5DP]

Awesome setup! These base model modern trucks are more well equipped than anything I grew up with. I have an F-150 XL 5.0 Sport package which is similar, and I love it. Just enough creature comforts to make trips nice and without the worry that down the road it wont nickel and dime you with all the fancy breaks or wears out.

[@cliffordmontana4562]

Exactly! That’s why I don’t understand getting the higher trims unless you’re truly rich. My “base” 2022 crew cab long bed 4x4 with Godzilla and 4.30 gears was $56,000, and with Ford Aplan it was $49,000. It has 8” screen with apple car play, bed lights, man step, bed liner, siriusxm, remote start, dual batteries and alternators, running boards, tinted windows, vinyl seats, vinyl floors. What more could you need? I don’t want massaging seats. Lol.

[@thedirtheadshed]

So true

[@chunkychambers1530]

Ford hit the nail on the head with the 7.3 and so did you by getting one!

[@thedirtheadshed]

Thank you

[@LScout800]

I bought the same trailer from carson a few years ago. Good trailer. Put stake sides on it and it gets used constantly.

[@thedirtheadshed]

I had made some scrap wood sides years ago. They got used a lot as well

[@Kingsoupturbo]

When Dave says Diesel is too much trouble, I listen! You got that thing right before prices skyrocketed, so much less expensive in the USA, in Canada, even a base F350 gas fleet is a fortune, ludicrous money. I'd like to see the trailer fixup!

[@thedirtheadshed]

Timing was right! For sure

[@thedirtheadshed]

Sounds like a good setup

[@575conbon]

When I reserved my base model bronco in 2020 and my 2021 order got bumped to a 2022 almost immediately I priced out getting another truck instead. I was was looking at a regular cab 4x4 F350, XL trim, 7.3 Godzilla, plow/camper packages for stiffer/taller springs. They weren't bad, MSRP was mid 40's at the time. I ended up sticking with my base model bronco that I was able to get out the door for like $32k. No regrets with the bronco, most fun vehicle I've ever owned. I still plan to find a 7.3 Godzilla f350 someday for my tow pig when I get to where I need one, most likely pre-owned though.

[@thedirtheadshed]

I was surprised at how much truck you get for the money

[@colebertils7359]

[@richvangorder3900]

I was in line for the big 7.3 when they announced it in '20. Couldnt be happier. The performance in tow haul is second to none in the gas segment. Under certain situations MT the tranny doesnt perform ideally when in regular D mode. But its usually when the powertrain is cold. None of the headaches or cost of the diesel. Its a sensible choice

[@thedirtheadshed]

I dig it. The trans downshifting so far on down grades is hard to get used to

[@nealpizza7531]

Thanks

[@TyeWills]

I drive a lot. I stopped buying Diesels in 2019. I’ve worn out a one ton gas truck since then. The gas truck lasted just as long, 635 thousand miles, but it was so much cheaper to maintain and keep going.

[@thedirtheadshed]

That’s so true. That’s why most ambulance companies went back to gas too

[@slaytanic921]

635k?! Which truck / engine?

[@TyeWills]

@@slaytanic921 2019 gmc 3500 6.0. I got rid of it before it got to 650k. Now I have another 2018 Chevy 3500 6.0 I bought it with 55k and it has 175k miles now.

[@TB-jj9tu]

I got my F350 in 2020 with the 7.3 gas SRW extended cab STX. It was a dealer order truck and I got it for sticker price just before the auto industry explosion. I tow a 35 foot gooseneck to haul my 10k lb skid steer. The truck has worked great and continues to impress. A lot of people give me crap because I didn’t get a diesel but I have heard a lot of horror stories about expensive repairs on new diesels. I deal with enough diesels in my equipment I didn’t want it in my truck. All I wanted was a nice simple truck, very little tech, gas engine and cloth seats.

[@thedirtheadshed]

Sounds like a good one

[@D3thM3tal]

This video made me realize my first actual vehicle was my brand new car trailer. I bought one BEFORE I bought my first vehicle as I knew it was easier to borrow a truck than a trailer. Stil got it, original deck, never - and I mean never, touched the wiring or replaced a light. Love my 7k Load Trail, it's extra wide, drive over fenders and never let me down going on 15+ years now...

[@thedirtheadshed]

Part of the family

[@donhappel9566]

I'm always shocked at how many people only go with 7K trailers. Given the trailer probably weighs in at 2500 lbs itself that doesn't leave much capacity for a crawler. Fine for the average car but only adequate for the smallest of crawlers or buggies. For example, my 18' tilt-deck with drive over fenders is 3000 lbs and my crawler is about 5500. That would put me way over a 7K trailer, hence the 5200 lb axles under it. I think a lot of people out there are running over-weight without even realizing it. Or maybe they think "7000 lbs" is the payload capacity of the trailer and forget to add the weight of the unit itself. Or you know, maybe they just don't think at all.....

[@saturnfivehynrgrc581]

Trailer maintenance on the channel is a good idea.

[@thedirtheadshed]

I’ll post it up
