Newbie here

A lot of good information here in your forums. I've learned a lot, my 94 F250 Turbo Diesel is the first diesel I've owned since 1978 and am amazed at the level of performance in these vehicles. I look forward to many more miles (I just bought the thing 5 months ago, w/125000 miles and have since put 15000 trouble-free miles. I live in Austin, Texas; today in my backyard the temp was 105° and the truck just seems to thrive on it.

Smile 'lo

Welcome aboard - from the right side of Tennessee. Just south of Bristol (the fastest 1/2 mile track) and a super drag strip too. For a bit of trivia - What makes a Ford faster ? - A bit of "shine" in the tank. Tooo much of it will melt the tires and blow the engine. Keep 'em rollin'.
