The traffic slowed to a stop and then took off again like it always does in rush hour, I had my 2.3l manual escape red linning through the gears but couldn't catch him again, he took off like a rocket, and no smoke.
are you talkin about the test truck or a 2008 diesel truck? personally i really dont care about the hood other than the fact the engine will be a reliable engine that will have a good reputation like the 7.3. ALSO the price to buy the truck will be more reasonable price to buy.
