Ford Diesels
Yahoo Message Number: 1663
I work for GM and got to drive a Ford F350 w/ a Turbo Diesel last month.

The engine noise in this pick-up was awful -particularly when accelerating. From outside, the engine noise was simply impolite -offensive.

There wasn't much acceleration even in the empty dually pick-up at 7500 lb and unloaded.

This experience reinforces the arguments of our club colleagues' that the diesel's reduced fuel consumption has no economic value.

It's gasoline and the inevitable end-of-life agonies for us in our new rig.
