Any Ford fan would be proud to own a 1995 F350 diesel pickup.

That was either the first or the second year of the Power Stroke diesel, a serious re-designed turbocharged engine rather and older design with a turbo slapped on.

By the end of of the 1990s, the Clinton EPA was after diesel vehicles and a replacement was designed by the maker Navistar (part of the old Imnternational Harvester Company). A smaller and more eco-friendly mill came out about 2001. Let's say it has a few fans and many detractors.

Ford started their own in-house diesels in 2010, made in Mexico.

I think I would keep the 1995 for as lomg as possible, noise aside.
