Quick Rant About Fords with Stickers
Quick question. Why is it I always see Ford Pick ups with CAT stickers in the rear window? I dont get it. That many people cant work for CAT can they?

that or their subconscious desire for a legitimate diesel engine is somehow manifested in the form of sticker.

Just like hovisimo said....... they just wish they had a decent diesel engine in their truck.... so they put CAT stickers on to make themselves feel better. LOL!

I haven't seen any Powerstroke Cummins service trucks...I have seen an International Dealer driving a Cummins Dodge service vehicle, and the CAT Dealer here has a Cummins Dodge and a Cummins F-750...which suprised me since you can get a CAT motor in them too...

Don't know how wide spread it is but the school district I work for has a bunch of new buses running Cats and they are having quite a few of problems with something to do with a fuel regulator or something. It is located on the end of the motor up against the back seat making it real tough to get to. Our bus mechanics are not happy campers!

Actually, when I worked in a mine back in the 70's they wouldn't let us put stickers or paint on our hardhats for fear the paint or glue would change the composition of the plastic and weaken it. I still go to uranium minesites fairly often and see all sorts of stickers on hats.
