Newb from Cali

Hello everyone, just wanted to introduce myself here. After being a GM loyal all his life, my dad just picked up a 2005 F-350 SD w/ the 6.0 Turbo PSD and Royal Body. His Chevy '97 3500 finally gave up on him after 150k.

Joined the site so I could do a little reading up on my Dad's new work-horse and help him out with it if he has any probs. I myself drive a slightly modded 2004 Honda Civic Si. I'm not new to the world of "car forums"; I've been an active member of www.grandamgt.com for the last 2 years and of www.ephatch.com for the last year.

I'm used to working on 6 and 4 cylinder gas engines, so the PSD Turbo 6.0 is a whole new experience for me.

Nice site and I hope to learn quite a bit about the Ford truck line

Thanks, I will check out the Cali chapters! What year Grand Am do you/did you own? I had a 2002 GAGT coupe until a friend of mine totalled it.

Anyways, thanks again!
