yep, i'm not sure why our trucks gotta be the "old" trucks now. i guess they are the old body style powerstrokes only, but your right. to me 70's-80's are old.. LoL. mostly b/c that's before i was born!! hahaha. i also miss my old truck. had an '81 F250 single cab long bed 4x4 T19 borg warner 4 speed w/ a 302 and a 4 bbl carb... i loved that truck!! once i got it running it turned out my dad didn't pay for it so they original owner took it back.. now i heard its back up for sale and thinkin' about getting it back. LoL. i loved those trucks that had F O R D written on the hood and midnight blue paint... i need to get that one back!!!

And i accidently lost everything I typed.
OBS is used for Diesels only. cause the 7.3PSD went though 2 bodystyles of trucks.
Gasers dont use the term. Only us 7.3 people.
So if you hear somebody say OBS, they are refering to a 94-97.
If they are using it for a gasser. smack them and correct them.
Our body style I belive has the longest run time of any truck.
Early 80's (or 70's?) to 97.
With some cosmetic changes here and there, but the style of the truck has not changed till 97.
Chevy drastically started their changes in the early 90's.
I dont know if they kept the same frame. I dont think they did, because they went to their lame Independent suspension in the front.

OH-BS
I call it ORIGINAL body style.. old is relative.. no one wants anything ‘old’ , right? I guess some people do, I prefer to have something original. Cars and trucks all look pretty much the same nowadays. I’m sure that will change, and evolve into another style eventually.. like fold away wings on a self flying jet car
