Well, I did it!

[hdjeff]

I sold my 97 7.3 to my buddy an today I got the new 08 F-250SD Crew Cab, long bed 4x4, 6.4 twin turbo. So far all i can say is wow, the ride is nice, its super quiet. I'll go take some pics and load them up later today.

08 sd

how quiet?
my friends 08 chebby doesen't even sound like a diesel at idle.

i think the 5.4 gasser is louder, i drove both and the diesel is pretty damn quiet. what a difference going from the loud 7.3, <---still a great truck though.

fwiw my brother has a duramax/allison...and id say its marginally
quieter than my 6.0L at idle in the drive way...goin' down the
freeway @ speed theyre evenly matched in silence.

the new (ford) 6.4L takes CONCENTRATION to confirm that its a
diesel...at idle or low speed.

Well here are some pics, so far the truck is great... been getting about mid-15's for mpg. its so quiet, you almost forget its a diesel! i miss the 7.3 sound, but sometimes i love being quiet.
