Nice pics, I laughed when I saw the PSD tow truck being pulled by your V10 tow truck.

Josh, do they have high idles on the 7.3s and 5.9s? What about the V10s?
That brings up something else. Will a high idle help a gasser like it will an oil burner?

Your IDI has 170 HP and 315TQ.
The newer V10s have 362HP and 457TQ.
Even the oldest has more torqe at idle all the way up to 5K than your IDI.

How are you going to pull that off?

I'd like to know how many of the anti-V10 crowd has actually towed with one. I know I was amazed the first time I hooked a heavy (15K including trailer) load to mine. Yes, you do have to wind it a little, but my "grocery getter" flat-*** pulls.

It will if its built right.
I love my V10, but I have an IDI and have to stand up for it too, even if it is a gutless pig.
