OK:<p>Bryan,<p>My F 650 has the cat motor and auto trans. It is a heavy truck but compared to my L 8000 it's a toy.<p>Anywas when i was specing out the truck i thought about 3 types of plows. <p>10' Meyer or Wester full blade trip. ( only thought about that for 30 secs wanted a trip edge)<p>10' Frink Blade ( thought about that for a while)<p>10' Fisher what i got.<p>Ok the Frink blade is the heavest blade out of the 3. I talked to my frink dealer about it, he told me to go with the fisher. The reason is 1. the type of plowing it dose roads, lots. 2 the weight of the plow.<p>Ok the frink plow would out last that truck. Heavy strong and a great plow, only also a lot more money than the other 2 choices. My frink dealer told me that putting a frink on a f 650 was ok but better for the 750, because each truck needs a 10' blade. The 650 would do it, but it's like plowing with a 7' blade on a ranger.<p>I went with the 10' fisher because i didn't want to buy the 750 to have the frink (anyone can drive the 650). I figured that is in 5 years the moldboard was junk. Then i would just go out a buy a new one, or a whole min-mount assembly except the frame kit. If i ever buy a 760 i will get a frink blade on it i think, see how the fisher dose.<p>For high speed plowing, and road plowing only the frink is the way to go. Only my 650 also dose lots so i needed a revesable plow. If i was just doing roads ( like the state dots and public works crews) i would use a f 750 with a wing and a one way plow, or revesable plow ( built by frink)<p>hope that helps.<p>Geoff
