Episode 290 of Mike Finnegan's Garage has something for everyone. First off, I had to take care of the shifter in my 1970 Datsun 510 because every time I reached for Second Gear, the shifter punched the dashboard and I smashed my knuckles. I ended up fixing it with fire! Then, I pulled my 13,000 original mile 1998 GMC Sierra short bed truck into the garage to measure it for new wheels and tires and a better suspension. Finally, I headed to Lithia Springs Ford to test drive two different 2024 Ford F250 Superduty trucks while towing my 28 foot ATC RoM 550 trailer. Not a lot of dealers will let the customer hook up their race trailer to a truck like that just for a test drive but I was determined to find out which was going to work better for my needs; the 7.3L Godzilla gas engine or the 6.7L high-output diesel engine.
