Rain, ice, leaves, gravel roads, and prolific amounts of mud. November in Oregon gets messy, and if your car isn’t equipped for such challenging weather, travel gets annoying.

Fortunately for EHS senior Tori Kuhlmann and her 1997 Ford F-350 truck, which she has named Blue, more mud means more fun.

This 4×4 monster flexes a 7.3L V8 diesel engine, and a four-speed automatic transmission making 245 horsepower.

As if that wasn’t enough, Blue is also on a 6-inch lift, has a new sound system, a transmission cooler, a tow package, gooseneck hookups, a K&N air filter and a 6-inch straight pipe.

The truck sounds the way she looks and performs the way she sounds.

Kuhlmann said her favorite memories in the F-350 fit perfectly with what you would expect. She enjoys going in the woods, kicking mud and being loud.
