Have any of ya'll ever heard of a Diamond T pick-up?

The 201 was made from like the 20s to 1949. They were built really well with huge (for the time) motor and just a very heavy frame.

I had never heard of them until a friend of mine bought one, restored it, and then sold it for a bundle.

I want the Fall Guy truck. Just to be badass. Just needs a good AC and radio.

I'd stick with my Tacoma TRD Off Road as a base. Then add

Icon mid travel coilovers
Total Chaos UCAs and LCAs
Icon Remote Resivoir rear shocks
All Pro Leaf pack
TRD Supercharger
285/75/16 MT ATZs
Glassworks fenders

This setup would handle anything you wanted to do off road and would have a great ride on the highway

Yeah, after Ford's 6.0 debacle there was the rumor Ford was getting a CAT. Or maybe Toyota.

I have ridden in a few with almost that exact setup, with the exception being Deaver springs instead of All Pro.

Meh, I've got one and there is much that could be done to upgrade it. Would rather a custom built one off truck

I think if CAT struck a deal with ford it would be worth the EPA hassles to get em in the f250.
