New Here -- Looking to join the club (With a 6.9 IDI)
Well, I left without the truck. I was on the fence, but there was one thing that really made me leery -- I intentionally told him that I would arrive about 45 minutes later than I actually did so he wouldn't have time to pull it out and start it again.

I'm hoping to purchase one in the next couple of days and found a lot of helpful info here about the truck I'm considering. Thought it would be a good place to hang in the...- ballwad
