Why not our own title

Why are all the new trucks identified by year and the originals aren't? As the beginning of everything we should at least be known as 94 1/2 through 97 Original body style.

Just bored and thought I'd ask.

I don't have a clue as to what you're requesting.

There are two forums called "Power Strokes 1994-1997", one for upgrades/aftermarket, and the other for everything else related to your truck and engine. What more do you want?

BTW, OBS is short for old body style - not original body style. The original body style was on the Model T back in the nineteen-teens, and your OBS doesn't qualify.

I think he means that the 08 SD's and 97-07 SD's are separate areas but the 94-97 "other" body styles are lumped in with all the "other" diesel engines.

The other powerstrokes are identified by year but those of us who have the OBS (my meaning was for original powerstrokes. I mean this was started because of them, right?), we're "Ford Diesels" and then other. Why can't we be 94 -97 Old Body Style and then sub pages for everything else under it.

That's all I meant.
