Re: [A/S] Reducing Diesel Noise?
Sell the Ford and wait for the new Chevy diesel. (c:
Seriously, true story. I test drove my truck after looking at every Super
Duty in North and South Carolina. It was the first one I found that had
*everything* on it I wanted. Crew cab, 4WD, PSD,leather, bucket seats w/
center console, radio inc CD player, NO carpet, etc etc........ but I hated
the color. Told the guy it was perfect, but I couldn't live with the
<<<<RED>>> I wanted a silver truck.
I went home, slept, woke up and couldn't live without the red. It matched
the Wally numbers..... it would look great with the silver.
I raced back to the dealer and bought Bruiser.
That night I had to drive him to town to pick up some boxes because I was
moving. Lots of stops and starts. I was almost in tears. I hated the
noise. The whiney turbo, the growl... I couldn't hear myself think. I
decided to return it to the dealer in the morning and get a V10.
Got up the next morning and headed back to the dealer, I was cooking along at
60 mph and fell back in love with the truck.
Why am I rambling on..... your wife will get used to it... she will love it
when she sees how well it tows. I don't even hear it now.
