1999 SD

Hello Folks,


New member, been driving Fords since my first car (1967 Falcon). My 1999 7.3L Turbo Diesel has 350,000 miles and the fuel economy recently jumped from 16 to 18 mpg. Must be nearly broken in. In general, the truck is in great shape. Doors don't sag, no rust, no wind whistles, all around solid performer.


Take care, Tom

welcome Tom, I'm new here myself. I have a 2k F250 with 218k miles. Still runs so smooth that I turn the radio off when I'm at a light sometimes because I can't feel it running. man for life!
