Dude, at first I though you were talking about round bales (thats what Im used too). Now our round bales weigh around 1800lbs a piece. 8 of them would be 14,400lbs. Haha I was like "DUDE, IF YOU THINK THATS A JOKE..!!!"
Haha, then it donned on me, 8 round bales wouldnt fit in the bed of a truck...that would easily crush the bed sides too...lol.
Ahhhh, Im dumb.

Lol.
Actually, when I think about it, I DONT see that many 4.6 Lariats...Never really noticed that till now...
97-98 dont even exist in my mind
99 is probably the best, since thats what year mine is Lol
Hopefully trading it off on an 03 sometime soon...Have to do some dealin'

Haha, well, if you see one coming at you all you have to do is take a step or two to the side...
If you dump one from a baler on a hill w/o thinking (I get sidetracked sometimes
) them babies will roll forever...and take out fences, small trees, F250s... Haha, yeah.(the F250 wasnt me, that was a guy that lives close to me lol)
Oh yah, Patman, just for arguments sake-

The eighth digit in the VIN, a W, indicates a 4six.

6,001-7,000 pounds GVWR with driver and front passenger air bags
but anyways its pretty rare to see a 2wd lariat too... But not only does the W indicate that its 4.6 but i also believe that means its a windsor motor.
Find me a 01-03 Screw 4.6 Lariat and i will call you King
either 4x4 or 2wd

5.4 is faster, no ifs, ands, or buts about it.
If the 4.6 had more *****, they wouldnt make the 5.4.
Figure out the power to wieght ratio...
