Hello
Just wanted to say hi to everybody. Im new to diesels and im an old hot rodder by heart also im a chevy guy. But driving my 5spd and diesel ive fallen in love with this motor. i have a 96 F350 Crewcab 5spd that i bought for $500.00. The only other diesel that has been in my family is my moms 240D Benz....i use to watch my dad use a hammer on the engine. LOL. I read alot of Threads and they have been most helpful than any website ive been to. Thanks for all the info.

Good to have you, Welcome. We look forward to seeing you on the boards and helping you relive some of those hot rod days, except with a diesel. Or at the very least, help you have fun with it.

Welcome to FTE, You stole that truck for $500. Heck, it's worth more than that scrapped!
Well all the $$ you saved buying your truck can be well spent on a few mods
It's called PMS (Powerstroke Mod Syndrome), lightens your wallet....adds a perma-grin to your face
