Default newbie from nebraska

I just found this site, have looked for a site pertaining to the na 7.3 off and on for a while now with no luck. from what I have read so far I really like it! I own an '92 f350 crew cab long box 4x4 with the 7.3 na with 230k miles on it 3.73 rear end gears with the zf 5s speed manual aluminum tranny. I put 130k miles on it myself in the last 10 years but for the last 4 years only about 3500 - 4k a year on it. I only pull my enclosed trailer with it to the dunes and back 2 - 3 times a year. I really like the truck it is all original and paid for. it needs just a little more power to maintain 75 mph with a 6500lb load with a 15 mph cross wind in 5th gear.

Nice. What part of Nebraska are you from? We had two IDI an 86 350 4x4 with the 6.9 and a 90 250 7.3 4x2. Both 5 speeds. They are not bad trucks. Pretty dependable. As long as it isn't cold out .
