Not so nice rigs...

I submit my old '93 F250 7.3l IDI turbo...

Complete with rusted through bumpers and moss in the grill...



The clearance lights all work though.

Plain Jane interior. No carpet, and manual roll up windows...



Dog was a later option. Still love wing vent windows.

Dog grew up...



In the past year I've replaced all four rear leaf spring mounts. Yes, they were rusting out and snapping. Had the front end gone through, but it still has the Ford "bent axle look"...



Old diesel still running good. A few oil changes, fuel filters, two complete sets of glow plugs (it goes through glow plugs like candy), and a serpentine belt.

Rear gas tank and the hitch are rusted beyond use now. Might replace those, or just screw it, the truck probably only has a couple more years left.

Nice rut ride. Just pray that the 2012 Mayan Apocalypse doesn't arrive whilst you own that Ford....

I tow with and generally beat on an '89 F350 diesel crewcab. Has turbo, intercooler, manual trans, aux. overdrive unit (US Gear) and a really crappy factory paint job. I look like Cousin Eddie at the boat ramp next to everyone and their shiny new urea farting diesel rigs.
