A DAILY-DRIVEN, 950HP 7.3L POWER STROKE
Despite how versatile diesel trucks are, we rarely come across one that can do it all—and when we do, it’s never fitted with a 7.3L Power Stroke. This makes Scott Morris’s ’00 F-350 the rarest of breeds. Producing 100 psi of boost and knocking on the door of 1,000 hp, his dually can run low 11s, outpull the Cummins and Duramax competition, and tow anything he needs it to. On top of that, the truck is his daily driver. “This truck gets used,” he tells us. “A trailer queen is useless to me.”
Bought brand-new at the local Ford dealership, Morris immediately put the truck to work towing a trailer. At the time, he was racing ATVs and competing on the national circuit, so finding a workhorse that could tow, get respectable mileage, and be ultra-reliable were at the top of his priority list. But he soon found out that toting a race trailer wasn’t the only work the truck would be doing. With just 365 miles on the odometer (and a flip chip from TTS Power Systems onboard), it was hooked to the sled for the first time—and Morris was instantly addicted to an entirely different form of motorsport.
