Howdy all!

Howdy all!

I am buying a 1990 Ford F250 Diesel Xtracab (?) with about 217k on it. It is not only my first truck but my first Ford as well. The body is in decent shape and the cab needs a good cleaning - the only real damage is in the bed, it is beat up.

I will drive it back and forth to/around the oilpatch so tips on improving mileage and so forth are greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Don Williams
