Hello, guys! New guy here from east TN. I have been here a lot recently researching the 6.9 and 7.3 IDI diesels. I don't have much experience with diesels, but i really like them. In the last year, I have put many thousands of miles on two International trucks. A 1991 4900 crew cab dump, with a DT360, and Allison AT. The other is a 2001 4300 dump, with a DT466, and a Eaton (I think) 6 speed. I never really had any interest in diesels before using them for work. I've always been a Ford guy (I didn't really have a chance), but mostly into gasser trucks, and Mustangs. I have gained a lot of respect for diesels after putting them through hell, and they have always been up to the task. Anyways, thanks for having me, I am happy to be here.
