I knew i was going to get crap on here for this:anitoof: Oh well, if i could have found a chevy in the shape this ford is in with a manual tranny i probably would have bought it. But i still remember the problems i had with that 94 6.5 and leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

i was a die hard chevy man too once. And someday i'll have another one. but for right now i'll have to drive my ford. I used to have a 1979 1/2 ton 4x4 and traded it for a 1992 K1500 4x4. that one got totaled out. Then dad bought that 88 F150 for cheap, then i bought that 1994 K1500 6.5TD, then i sold it and bought the 1990 F250 5.8l and now i bought the f250 Diesel. will be selling both the F150 and the F250. Dad gave the F150 when i bought the farm from him in 04.

Just couldn't get far enough away from precup engines huh?

I don't mind, as long as it still burns diesel.

I wouldnt mind a 6.9 or a earlier 7.3 put in my Scout. Other than that..Id rather go to the dentist than drive a ford.

The only thing I like about Navistars is racing them.
