Ford F-250 Sleeper
Tom feels pretty strongly about what his Banks products have done for his truck. “I’ve always been a truck guy, but not a fancy truck guy. People typically dress them up, but this truck tow’s my 30’ fifth-wheel trailer and my sleeper. I take after my father in that way. He typically had cars that were unassuming. I could tell you stories about him drag racing his ‘72 Ford that looked like it came out of a junkyard. It was amazing!”
“My 2017 F250 XLT Crew SB with 117,000 on the ticker needed to be the right tool for the right job, so I began the ‘Banksification’ process with the Derringer and iDash SuperGauge, PedalMonster, and Ram-Air intake. To be honest, my expectations were that I wouldn’t notice much difference in performance. I was wrong!”
“The Monster Exhaust System completes it all,” continues Tom. “I’m more than impressed, frankly. There was no change in sound (which I was not pursuing), but boy, the throttle response improved dramatically. Then, on the test drive, I kept thinking that the truck felt like it dropped a couple of thousand pounds! She felt light, and the giddy-up got my pulse racing. Completely unexpected, and completely impressed.”
“I was not seeking mileage gains, but I’ll take ‘it if I get some. It’s just way too soon to determine. I’m in my mid-50’s and it took me less than 90 minutes from start to finish to complete the job (though I hurt like Hell all over this morning). I wish I didn’t wait so long to do this. Can’t wait to tow my fifth wheel now and see how it’s changed! I tell ya, Banks is money well spent.”
