    E350 Purchase

    vehicles can have a title branded as salvage for a number of reasons, I would have a PPI done on it if that is an option the seller is willing to give you and determine whether or not to buy it based on that... salvage title may ding you on trade in or resale but it won't be unsellable like this...

    Ford 7.3 - any reason to not get one?

    Unless you are towing alot or going 4x4 then I would consider a 5.8 as they are reliable, cheap to fix and have decent power and the vans they are in are significantly cheaper. The one that powers my class B is quiet and gets its huge ass going down the road at 70 without breaking a sweat. I...

    Ford 7.3 - any reason to not get one?

    they are cool, get one I've had both a 5.9 12v and both IDI 7.3 and PS... 5.9 seemed a little louder than the 7.3.... both sound great with a more free flowing exhaust, lots of turbo noise

    Talk Me Out of an OBS as a budget overlanding rig!

    I second your "crude" comment, they are indeed crude but only relative to anything newer. I still do no hesitate to get in my IDI truck and hammer down 1000+ miles. The IDI just runs.

    Talk Me Out of an OBS as a budget overlanding rig!

    This was a good read! I agree with you 100% Now that I have showered praise upon my beloved pair of crewcabs the vacuum pump has gone out on the powerstroke and the front end is making a light grinding noise in 4WD. :rolleyes::cautious:

    I have both a 92 crew cab dually IDI with over 400k and a 96 crew cab 4x4 7.3 SRW with 260k ... both are stick shifts. They are awesome trucks but like anything they will need maintenance to remain awesome. They are loud big heavy old trucks. The engines and manual transmissions are amazingly...
