I am a new guy to diesels and recently made my first post on this forum. I am looking for other fellow super duty owners that are in my area. I could use advice as to which dealers are best for service, places to get parts, locations for biodiesel, etc.

Thanks,
TW

I use Drew Ford for service, but I ususally do my own oil changes. Buy the oil filter at Walmart and everything else on line at www.shopdiesel.com.

I would avoid biodiesel if you are under Ford warranty. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smokin.gif

www.shopdiesel.com is not working?

To all Californians, which stations are preferred when filling up on diesel? I have noticed significant differences in performance in the few fill-ups I have made since I bought the truck. I have tried Cheveron, Texaco, Shell, and Unocal. The worst was the fill I received from the dealer, the best was from Texaco. I know the common belief is to stick to brand-name, but if given a choice, which is the preferred?

MIRAMAR TRUCK CENTER........the BEST truck factory service center in San Diego!!!!! They have several shifts of mechanics.....the last is there until MIDNIGHT!!! It seams most trucks don't spend more than a day or two there!!!!! They are friendly and very professional!!!!!!! Just my $.02 /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

I live in SD specifically Ocean Beach. Won't be back there until October though.

I've had good luck with Pearson Ford, but for anything serious and specific to diesel, I'd take it to the Miramar truck joint.
