    Feedback please: 1989 F250, 7.3L IDI Diesel

    I am considering a new (to me) rig. It’s an ‘89 F250 4x4 with 180,000 on the non-turbo IDI 7.3L diesel. I hear the 7.3 is called “the million mile motor” but I’ve not owned a diesel and this would be my first. Thus, any feedback on this engine or that particular model F250?

    Jeep The RME4x4 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon

    Pi * OD. Easy. Also, you can get a sense of the rolling diameter by using the RPM. The RPM doesn’t actually use the static OD because under load and rolling, the OD is different.

    Endurance ship found.

    I went to an exhibit where they had original photos from the expediction as well as one of the lifeboats. One of the greatest adventure and leadership stories of all time. If you love The Endurance Saga, make sure you read the book about Shackleton's team that went around the other side...

    General Tech What did you work on Today?

    I have thought about a barndominium for a long time. I now have a lot (1.1 acres) but I think I’m going to end up with a small cabin with a large shop built behind it. Part of my reasoning is the opportunity to rent out the cabin as an airbnb type deal. I’ll still build a little space in my...

    What happened to the cars?

    I think @I Lean initially indicated TV shows. Probably the reason. You’ve brought up a classic movie though for sure.

    What languages do you speak?

    I have some skills in French. Working for a French company for 23 years kind of makes it necessary. I'm glad I learned, had some great times when I had opportunity to vacation over there.

    What happened to the cars?

    I did't think too many would remember it. I just can't forget Michelle! She also made a mark in Grease II, also oriented on motorcycles. speaking of focus on motorcycles, what about CHIPS? Jon had an awesome Chevy Stepside.

    What happened to the cars?

    Who remembers B.A.D Cats? I had a bad crush on Michelle Pfeiffer. The show was all about cars.

    Where my detectors at??

    I’ve now located all four corner posts at the property I’m purchasing. Pretty stoked about that, the metal detector actually worked out amazing! I had a friend up there today so I was looking again for that pin I left without finding the other day. While I was searching in the area I had...

    Your Pic of The Day

    If you are near Paducah you have to visit land between the lakes recreation area. Several campgrounds, buffalo and Elk pens to visit. And huge lakes. Personally I like traveling in my campervan(RV if you want) as opposed to hotels.

    Where my detectors at??

    Spent some time today tracing out a boundary line and searching for another pin. The target was the far back corner - the eastern pin. I hadn’t found it by the time it started snowing. I headed back towards the road figuring I’d call it a day. By the time I got to the road it had stopped snowing...
