Nope, here in Texas it's hardly necessary. Gas kills, when you can survive on a 40MPG+ economy car here.

I drove a 2000 something F-350 dually for my job last summer and it had a lot of power. I did smokey burnouts in it numerous times. I just love the sound of the spooling turbo on the diesel engine.

Yes, its still stock. Its still stock because i dont want to void the warrenty. When the warrenty runs out i am going to put a tuner, intake, and 5" smoke stacks on it. I also love the turbo sound. I somethings roll down the windows and listen to the engine instead of my cd's.

warentee scharentee. Modifications only void the warentee if they were the direct cause of the failure. When I put the racing suspension on my truck, I had my ball joints die and got them replaced on warentee. Even tho, the 2" of drop probably did make them go faster.

Throw an exhaust and headers on there. There isn't much that can be harmed with an exhaust, an intake too for that matter. You can also remove a tuner completely in about 5 minutes and they will never know
