Well about an hour ago I pulled the trigger and made a deal for this truck
http://orlando.craigslist.org/cto/1106099736.html I went and drove it and good god what a torque monster
It's a 7.3 litre diesel with 5 speed manual with only 97,868 miles. It has some dings to pound out and two small rust holes to weld up and some fiberglass work needed on the dually fenders but it's in great running shape. The owner told me at 70 mph on the highway he easily gets 18-19 mpg !!! I imagine this will pull a car trailer and not even know it's back there. So now I have a project truck to go along with my project 914.................does it ever end
Now I have to learn about diesel routine maint. and any other items to look out for. Thanks guys.
