1984 Ford F 250 Explorer IDI Diesel 4MT: Regular Car Reviews

- Edit: This isn't how and IDI works. An IDI injector squirts into a little round nub like the tip of a condom where fuel and air get to 2nd Base before nutting in the main combustion chamber. This is the old-school analog way of controlling swirl/mix/combustion location. Modern Direct-Injection diesels don't have a per-ignition chamber/condom nub. The computer does everything.

Official truck of dads everywhere who strap their loads down while saying “that’s not going anywhere”
My modern dad version is "DAMNIT, thats the most secured load I've ever seen"
@@_RiseAgainst No, I believe he was referring to you.
Dad knew how to keep sofas off the interstate. We need more people like Dad.
HHAHAHA
While tugging on the straps of course.
Nothing says 80's truck like a red interior with fake wood
I wish there were more coloured interior. Green, brown, blue and red.
My 86 is worse. Brown interior with the fake wood.
And that black soot coming out the back 2:07
I miss when ford had red and blue interiors, they had more personality than the lifeless black gray and beige you get these days
I love red interiors, they're gorgeous
9:33 "The 80's that are still 1975"
A very accurate representation of how time doesn't change uniformly across different regions regarding various parts of life.
It's 2020, and I still know of a pre-boomer man who lives like it's a mix of the 1940s to 1960s. He was a firefighter in New York, he reads by candlelight, and he still thinks that salt is bad for you. I can guarantee you that he thinks nothing of the internet, and he thinks that the newspaper is still a great place to put an ad.
@@101Volts And I guarantee that he's more content than every last one of us
Fun fact: the dukes of hazard was produced from 1980 to 1985, but takes place in 1975.
to be fair, the 70s is when trucks became less like "tin cans"
There's a joke about a scientist who invents a time machine. He shops around for a volunteer and finds one. He asks what year he'd like to travel to and the volunteer says 1975. He then asks him, why don't you just take the bus to Cleveland OH? It's still 1975 there.
I swear that coin-holder in the glovebox lid should be designed to hold different calibre rounds.
YOURE ONTO SOMETHING
.45 acp (because they don't make a .46), 30-06 because its what we used to kill the Nazis and 5.56 because America.
This is would be ideal for boomers
I'll take a .357 30-30 combo.
@@eaglestryker1338 If we’re trying to please boomers here then I’d say take out the 5.56 and replace it with something like 30-30. It’s pretty rare to see a boomer actually like any gun chambered in 5.56 unless it’s a mini 14.
@@braidenwhite5767 you underestimate the amount of boomers with AR 15s
If John Goodman was a truck this would be it.
More true than you know, John Goodman prefers to drive around in older pickups. As an old fat white dude in a truck, he's practically invisible and can go anywhere without being harassed.

Big, loud and looks decent dressed up?
Why does this make so much sense?

Yeah, they don't.

*slaps denim-covered belly* mmmYEP
The OP isn’t wrong. The simplicity, durability, and reliability of these older trucks are legendary
Definitely a 3 speed. I only used 1st gear when I wanted to show off how slow I could go
My ‘97 with a ZF5 & 460 was the same way. You could darn near get out and walk beside it idling in 1st.
Try a 4x4 with low range in first gear lol I could get out and crawl faster than mine would go
Nope it's definitely a four spread with a granny gear, there were 3 speeds but those were meant for whimpy 1/2 tons and cars, Ford offered a 4 speed with overdrive but that was a 5 speed meant for 1/2 tons and cars as you couldn't haul or pull any weight in overdrive or the transmission would overheat
@@mdlclassguymdlclassguy6488 Ya I know, it was a joke, first gear in the old 4 speeds is utterly useless for street driving
@@mdlclassguymdlclassguy6488 Huh?
When I first started working construction at 16, the company I worked for had a whole fleet of these, and they were bullet proof. We beat the shit out of those trucks 6 days a week, and they weren't replaced until the mid-2000's. And the brand new Silverado's that replaced them were less reliable from the get go...two of them literally caught on fire within a month of ownership.
Shoulda hooked up with Rinaldi and Kline.
@Toxic Potato Canada, actually...and it's not normal...it's shitty parenting combined with growing up in a town of less than 400 people.
🤣😂😂😂😂😂we had them in ambulances, and they never made 80k without cooking the injector pumps and headgasket milkshaking the oil
lol
We have one of these as a snow plow at work, it’s a large shipping cross dock, it just sits in the corner under a tarp for 3/4 of the year and then it’s taken out to go plow and salt. It’s pretty much just a matter of quick fluid changes, making sure the tires have air, and filling the tank, and it starts up every single winter.
It lives winter inside as a reward, where it’s just less of a hassle to have to walk from the corner of the yard and instead just parking it inside with the spotter trucks.
Not that it needs to, I’m certain it could handle the cold.

Weird flex but ok
Great to see you on here, Matt! Love your work ... you and Winston make a great team!
Please don't stop, and again, keep up the great work! :)
While this is surprising but hi
I love how this truck just consistently rolls coal.
Haha, yep reminds me of every diesel vehicle in the 80's, school buses, garbage trucks, everything! You knew you were driving towards a city when you saw the brown dome on the horizon.
Yup, no turbo meant lots of black smoke.
No turbo definetley doesnt mean black smoke i owned one and thats not true😂
@@clintonbarker5399 agreed. My buddies 7.3 idi with no turbo smokes less then my 03 duramax with a turbo
I had a 91 with the 7.3 idi, same thing basically. It wouldn't smoke much normally but if you took it to higher elevations it would blow smoke constantly.
The "old man in coveralls" is too true. I've got an old 78 camaro and it seems like every older guy in the world walks up and "used to have one just like it when I was young" whenever I stop for gas.
You: “what happened?”
Old guy: “Totaled it”
I can smell the marlboro-tainted upholstery through the screen.
I can smell my grandpa's old truck that he used while working for TxDoT for 30 years. It even had smoker's windows
I can smell that diesel made black cloud of smoke coming from the exhaust pipe through my phone screen
My family farm had a 1978 F-250 Explorer 4x4 from new until about 5 years ago. It was a 351/4-speed truck with what must've been 4.11 or so gears, because it was wound pretty tight at 55. It had a red interior with fake wood, but being older still, it also had a partially painted-steel dash. It positively REEKED of old 2-cycle gas, diesel (as a parts cleaner, of course), stale cigarette smoke, chewing tobacco, hay, hardwood chips/sawdust, and creek bottom mud. I LOVED it, and always will.
Weedman My grandfather smoked those, when he wasn’t smoking L&M’s or a pipe.
For my stepdad’s 85 F-150 300-6 4-speed OD, it was Benson & Hedges Menthol Lights. He was fancy. 😂
BTW, his truck didn’t have a headliner, just painted steel roof and I attempted to clean the tar build-up off of it one time. It was damned near impossible.
I’d like to thank Rinaldi & Kline for their van and hole digging capabilities, otherwise I’d be stuck with some stuff and no hole to put it in. I tried to post on their page but it seems to have moved again and the number dials to the local Planet Fitness now. Craig usually answers and knows one of the Rinaldi’s so he was kind enough to give me his latest contact info. However that number now dials direct to the new C Town.
I, too, would like to thank Rinaldi & Kline; without them, I would still have to listen to my mother-in-law say some repetitive complaint about my "aMbItIoN"...
One more shout out to Rinaldi and Kline.
I just plain needed a big ole hole in the back. And the wife always says no.
Thanks to Rinaldi & Kline i finally found a solution to get rid of my excess stock of large rolled up carpets.
They just dig a hole, dump it in and badabing badaboom fuggedaboutit.

"Old men in denim overalls materialize out of the asphalt and THEY GOT STORIES!!" oh man I died at this haha! Also, your narration is top notch dude.
Fun fact: you can actually tighten the steering, its a screw on the power steering gearbox
realllly. had no idea. looking into this. thanks
about a year too late, but recirculating ball steering boxes need free play to avoid destroying themselves. you can remove some, but not all of the slop.

"It's got so much steering you'll do it all the time, even when you're not turning!"
F O R D
That's pre-1990s cars in general. (EDIT after 44 thumbs up:) That's also on some cars up to 1996 models. Also, I was once driving an 84 Caprice, and I looked away for 2 seconds to pat my Dad on the forearm, then I was pulled over for swerving, which I didn't even see myself do. I wasn't ticketed, though.
Eh mine doesn't do that. Although I'm starting to think that I got a really straight truck that was well taken care of; even though it has over 230k miles.
@@BonsCreeperReaper the weird thing is that the steering on mine has actually gotten noticeably less-loosey-goosey in the years since I bought it 😲
With older(60's-80's) steering boxes in US full sized vehicles like the F-150 were deliberately vague to absorb most road vibration through the steering wheel. I also own 3 Fox body Mustangs, if I had to take a long trip, I'd take the F150 over them in a second. Better ride and the steering wheel doesn't beat your hands up over every damn bump. With any vehicle of that old, unless the owner delibertately replaced the front suspension bushings, they're are all dead soft by now, too.
I love the single finger steering on older trucks. The point of having a truck is to make it do the work instead of you. If yours is all over the road there's probably something wrong with it. I have almost this exact truck and it goes dead straight even with 33x12.50 tires on it.
"I was fully bonded and licensed by ya motha last night!"😂😂😂😂😭😭
Never stop doing the running side shot. Something is very satisfying about knowing someone is running next to the vehicle just to make sure we’re seeing that shot.
IDI the official engine of yelling at the drive thru intercom
Nah that's the 7.3 powerstroke. I have to turn it off if I want to go through the drive thru.

I have one of these. That giant grin on your passenger, its on my face every time I drive it. Can haul 20 bales of hay no problem. Steering is a "little" spongy. I talk to old men in parking lots quite a bit. I love the fact I can wrench on it.
When I was a kid , a friends dad had a crew cab diesel Ford.
Damn thing was slow as hell,but didn't really get any slower hauling a 30' camper.
Rinaldi and Kline dug my pool. They put a few bags in it then threw dirt on top. When I asked they said it was for "stability"

You guys should keep the Rinaldi & Kline ads going... turn it into an RCR inside joke..:
Kinda like "Goldberg, Goldberg, Goldberg, and Goldberg"?
President MC they should just have ads here and there during their shows for these fake companies. Not like it wouldn’t take away from the episodes.
Ok
Nah, using these things multiple times is dumb. They'll think of something else that's funny to put in their other videos - they always do.
Rory438 and I agree. I mean these ads are great, they should of coarse make new ones as well and incorporate them into their videos. Kind of a way to have ads in the videos but not “real” ads
This is so true. Every time I try to find a used two-door standard cab truck with 8-ft bed it's usually 20 plus years old. All the newer stuff I find is usually four door with a 4-ft bed.
You can get them but you have to pony up for a Super Duty. Or find a dealership that stocks base work trucks.
Some Nissan Titans are still available with the single cab long bed but even they discontinued it because market demands at least an extended cab.
XD series come with a crew cab standard bed length.
Or you can get the land yacht ram 3500 mega cab long bed dually so you feel like you navigating the Walmart parking lot in the USS Gerald Ford
"it's got so much steering you'll do it all the time. Even when you're not turning." As a bullnose owner I can say that is the most accurate joke in this entire video.

"Whether it's a 1980's truck or postwar values, the elders of today are finding themselves living in a world growing more and more alien and unknowable.
They're living in a world where youth no longer respect their elders by virtue of them having lived longer. That's what they were expecting would happen. This is a different world now. An elder needs to aspire to be worthy of respect. And that's a reality that reads unfair to the August mind. But a truck like this is an elder that did do the work - and is still approachable and knowable and listens to you today. And you can, like this IDI diesel, listen to it. And this is worthy of respect."
Heavy stuff. Did not expect to feel this way during this review. Hug your grandparents, kids.

"it's got so much steering you'll do it all the time even when you're not turning" brilliant as always
Those trucks do need steering input 100% of the time any speed above 30 MPH. It gets old, but you learn to just auto pilot the corrects. At first though you'd think you were in 80mph winds.
When I was a kid I had a square body Chevy as my first car, it was the same exact thing. Sawing that wheel back and forth just to keep it in the lane, lol.
my 98 serria slt does that too...gotta love that 6 inches of play in the steering lol
Gotta get down and tighten/adjust that steering box up, get that slop out.
@@WhitefolksT thats just how they are. my dad bought this gmc in 01 with 9400 miles on it..it was pretty much the same. they just don't have tight steering.
The men in denim overalls quote really hit home, supposedly just bought one of these trucks at auction, waiting for my winning bid to be officially accepted and already have a story from a family friend about one of his buddies who was an alcoholic crashing one of these trucks so many times he could no longer tell when he got in a wreck due to not being able to tell what was new damage and eventually rolling the truck 3 times in a ditch and the thing still ran just fine.
Lets see...
1. Interesting thing about these motors - they actually do like revs. If you happen to have one with a turbo(either aftermarket or factory(93-94 MY), they *really* like the higher RPMs. You can run them up to the governor without issue, as long as you want - they were governed at a safe speed. It's basically impossible to over-rev an IDI without modifying the IP or engine breaking in too low a gear.
2. Precups: Kind of like your edit, but the more specific answer is that it "works" much like any direct-injected PLN(pump-line-nozzle) diesel, except that instead of the injector going straight into the cylinder(and usually against a dish in the piston), it goes into a small, quarter-sized chamber in the head. Combustion starts in there, and then the pressure pushes the burning gasses out into the main piston area where it mixes with the rest of the air there.
Pros: Very tolerant of poor fuel atomization, leaky injectors etc. Things will run "decently" with a lot of issues.
Cons: Slightly less efficient than an direct-injected motor, apples to apples.
3. Carbon accumulation on the intake valves: Not really a problem on the IDI. Fuel isn't injected in the intake; any buildup is from engine oil vapors pulled through the crank-case vents. Usually, though, these don't get hard and carbon-y; I only see hard deposits on the exhaust valves occasionally.
Also... I daily-drive my IDI(93 factory turbo, 5-speed, 4x4). It'll pull anything, do just about anything, and feels /right/.

There’s still works trucks. Also if there not so what.
lawnmowerdude very few trucks are sold today With single cab short bed
The reason is because trucks were never known In pop culture for being cool until the last 20-25 years. Which I think is sad
@@ryanlusby569 idk man I thought marty's toyota in back to the future was cool as hell as a kid in the 80's, and we had monster truck videos and the "stomper" toy trucks, among others. I was as un-rural as you could get and had plenty of "cool truck" reference points in pop culture. modern trucks started becoming uncool to me in the early 2000s when they became weird luxury items or targets for absurd mods, because the utilitarian aspect was part of the coolness. I think people now just find the shape of a truck cool rather than the actual "truckness"
@@ryanlusby569 This might explain why my corner of Pennsylvania still has plenty of 90s F150s running around. They're not the most common truck, but they're *very* common for their age.

Was thinking the same thing. Except for the missing tach, that's an extremely optioned-up truck for 1984.
Glad some one understands they could have almost lincoln level luxery if you really option it out. Almost like a moving office with the right seats
My moms 80 F150 was as base as you could get. No power brakes. No power steering. Manual. The only factory option it had was a cassette deck. The dealer installed the ac.
@@ericbuist8218 1985 was the first year a tach was available for the idi trucks, so this truck is very very optioned out!
@@noahgaray7923 I didn't know that; interesting!
Nice truck. I had an idi 7.3 and loved it. I'd like to find another some day. But research idi, it doesn't spray fuel on the intake valve. It actually sprays fuel into a precombustion chamber where the glow plugs is located. It's supposed to be better cold starting among other things. It produced a lot of heat and it one reason you see such a large radiator. They in my opinion were a great engine especially if it was a late 7.3 with a 5 speed
Actually prechamber diesels are worse at starting in the cold. My Massey Ferguson is a bitch to start in the cold and the old VW 1.5 and 1.6 diesels can also be a bit tricky to get going.
Yea, IDI is always worse for starting due to the extra surface area inside the head touching the charge air. That's why they almost always have glow plugs, and compression ratios over 20:1
I guess I was a lucky one. I regularly started my idi 7.3 in below zero temps. Good batteries- good fuel with antigel additive. 5w-40 synthetic oil and a high torque gear reduction starter with oem glow plugs and I was off to the races. -15 was never a problem. I had a block heater but only plugged it in once to see if it worked in case I needed it. I didn't have any place to plug it in otherwise I would have used it.
@@jimmotormedic 5w-40 and good glowplugs did the trick👍🏻
The 7.3 IDI has nothing in common with the 7.3 powerstroke.
Two different engines, that share nothing but the displacement.

@@GiordanDiodato Hey Tony, we got a wise guy here.

0:52 That is most real statement I've heard in a while. I know friends who have taken bigger loans on their truck than a freaking Used Supercar.
The whole Luxury Truck MSRP is a freaking scam. Wait to buy them used, even 2-3 years. I can't believe people pay almost 6 figures for a brand new work truck.
The same generation of f150 as the f250 in this video had an MSRP that when adjusted for inflation was under 20k in todays dollars.
Modern trucks are a scam indeed.
Note how the no interest payment options are growing every year or two. Went from 60 months to 72, then it will probably go to 84. I wonder if saying the word year scares people?
Like 72 months is 6 years
I saved a shitload , by not buying one at all.

Kudos for the VIN Wiki reference, why you haven't been invited on there for a story yet is beyond me, somebody should let Ed Bolian know

I love this body style. My dad had an ‘83 F-150 with a 302 V8 and the 4-speed standard transmission, the truck was basically bulletproof.
Still driving my grandparent's '83 f150. I will only get rid of it under two conditions: it's either totalled, or I am dead.
These conditions are not mutually exclusive.
@@zoomzabba452 In fact driving anything from 1983 makes it very likely these two situations coincide.
Somewhere there is a very angry Canadian man suddenly feeling at peace with the world as RCR says the F250 is a good truck.

I have one of these. The line about old men materializing from asphalt is wickedly true. They're nice, and simple trucks.
Dude I just wanted to say that was some well composed social monologue there at the end.
12:21 nothing like having a line behind you at the pump, putting the cap back on one tank, and opening the other as you watch the hope fade from the eyes of the next driver in line.
And then topping off your tidy tank and a bunch of jerry cans after that.
When I was a kid working at a gas station, whenever these dual tank trucks would come in I'd grab the pump from the other side and get them both going at once. They also made rollback tow trucks out of these things, we had a few of those that came in on a regular basis.
16 gallon front tank first to tease, big 19 gallon tank afterwards
When this happens with the vantruck, it's 18-20 gallons up front and 20-22 gallons in the back. I straight up am filling two normal SUVs.
@@CutTimeBrony I put a deep 32 gallon tank in my '93 to replace the 19 gallon rear. It's awesome. And yeah, even worse from a waiting in line standpoint! :D
Thanks for having the truck on! It just made a 1500 mile trip to and from Maine this week pulling a trailer! It definitely needed an alignment when this video was shot.
nice truck man
Haha that's so crazy, I seen your truck going by in maine, I love 80s fords so I had a fanboy moment. Then I seen this video and thought "no way". Love the truck man
This is an absolute beauty of a truck. A timepiece. Please keep it, love it, drive it and pass it along (when its time) to a like minded individual who will treat this thing with the love it deserves! Thanks for sharing!
Hunter Michaud Get out Lol. Where at in Maine? I took 95 pretty much all the way up to the border of Canada
Great truck!
When you said it's a 200 gallon tank I was amazed. That's around 750 litres a regular midsize car here in Europe has a 20 gallon/75 L fuel tanks.

I rarely see a video on automobiles that I relate to this much. Such a real accurate take on trucks and the way they were and are now built. Absolutely Fantastic Video.
I miss my old truck...1987 Ford F150 single cab rwd 3 speed auto with the 4.9 straight 6. No over drive manual windows but man that engine was bullet proof
Your I.d.i explanation is for petrol engines, diesels with idi use a pre combustion chamber in the head where the fuel is injected and ignites then sprays in to the main combustion chamber to complete the burn. It's not injected outside the valve
farnzy2011 where can I find a cutaway drawing so I can see what this looks like?
RegularCars really? You’re on a computer
I was wondering about this. If my understanding is correct, a Diesel engine would develop preignition if the fuel entered the cylinder during the intake stroke, or any time before it was expected to burn, yes?
RegularCars I just googled it and it’s pretty much the second picture to pop up . It’s basically an injector that shoots into a little bowl and has a small hole that leads to the cylinder.
Gabe *lastname* that is correct diesel timing is done by point of injection since the fuel it ignited by compression. If you would spray fuel in the intake manifold on an engine with 16:1 compression you would probably have ignition at something crazy like 30+ degrees before TDC. This would either lead to the engine not running or a huge knock.
The sweet mingling of faint diesel/kerosene, cigarette smoke, and hot interior plastic. Those smells are the theme of my ride along childhood.
Yep.. Damn I miss it..
.... and beer.... then put that George Strait cassette in.
Probably one of my fav RCRs of all time ❤️
This was the 1st video i have watched from your channel and this was great, funny, insightful, honest and very refreshing, Thank you

Honestly, as long as a vehicle has Air Conditioning and a radio, I'm fine.
Just toss in a bluetooth speaker and it will probably be better than anything the factory was offering back in those days.
@@franksmith5990 Or you can use an old CD player
@@arunparkin2552 prefer the speaker. They often have a decent battery life. great for fishing.
Exactly! Why don't car manufacturers understand this? The only modern option I'd like is Bluetooth connectivity and that's it.
Charlie T Yes! And my god manufacturers just allow me to have a manual transmission in my domestic full size truck! Which isn’t even an option anymore.
Reminds me of my dad's '84 GMC Sierra Classic. 6.2L diesel. Steering it was like steering a boat, just constant corrections of the drift. The engine was the same base as for the humvee so when I enlisted I got to hear that familiar sound again. Great memories, also had a saddle blanket seat cover like this one. Thank you for the nostalgia.
I had a neighbor growing up in the 80’s, an older man. A chain smoker with coifed gray hair, permanent white tank top, and a foul mouth. He had a Chevy Silverado that actually was silver. With chromed handrails on the bed, chromed wheels, and metal flake decals in the back window featuring naked woman and dirty jokes. He loved that truck. RIP in 80’s heaven Roger.

This is the perfect vehicle to play Bruce Springsteen's 1984 album: Born in the USA on cassette.
This one was born in Canada, though, the VIN starts with a 2
Except it seems to lack a tape deck. I suppose you could buy a separate player.
Driving this truck down the interstate in Wyoming while Bruce Springsteen’s “Bobby Jean” plays through the speakers. That!

Man, your review script is just on point. I must respect your regular car reviews.
I’m honestly glad I forgot about you guys for awhile......because I just started rewatching today and have new videos to watch 🙏
Oh man. Dad used to have one of these. I remember the day we were leaving the dentist and it died in the parking lot. He yelled at me because I had been talking and being silly when he went to crank it and he realized it was a goner. He later apologized to me, and explained that he had lashed out in a moment of emotion. It is one of my formative memories. Seeing my dad lose something he loved, and experiencing a heartfelt apology from the man I have always looked up to and even hero worshiped. That was a good truck.
I remember that episode of King of the Hill
@@craigwarren5192 Hank Hill is a father worthy of emulation.
What was wrong with it? Was the fix too expensive for it to be worth keeping the truck or something?
@@CockatooDude yes. I don't remember specifically, only that it was prohibitively expensive.
"If you wanna pay with a check, you gotta make it out to my mother"
I actually spit out my coffee a little bit because it reminded me of a client I had a couple years ago.
Man I don’t know how I stumbled upon your video, maybe because I’m always looking up f-150s from 2015-2020. Anyway I clicked on your video and instantly loved your commentary. Great job, your writing was entertaining. Good stuff 👌🏽
Where have you been all my life. Great humor and content. Great perspective. 1984, the year I was born. I learn to drive in a 1990 7.3 idi “custom” no frills long bed single cab, with the e40d trans. Great memories
The truck that makes a Nissan Hardbody look pretentious.
Owning both an old F250 diesel AND a Nissan Hardbody... I can confirm this 100%
Is this the Nissan based on Terrano I? How is this in any way pretentious? It has a 7L engine. it would work amazingly with 3,5d V6 and if you want the V8 so much it could be 4,2L. Its not a 8t truck.
@Reclusiarch Grimaldus Yeah I know. In terms of use. In terms of weight it was 1,6t (metric). So even less than first gen Terrano. I think it all went into bigger payload but the bed of it never looked any big. Yeah you could fill it with rocks or steel bars and bent the frame. Mostly - an utility vehicle killed in US by the "chicken tax". Those had 2,0 - 2,4l engines. 2,7td was way than enough for it.
I’d pay a finders fee for someone to find a Ford , Chevy or Dodge of this type. Manual, simple, with AC limited to no rust. Want want want.
Texas, Louisiana, Arizona, New Mexico, Alabama, Georgia, the carolina’s...Save the hassle of the finders fee unless that’s what you want...just hire a car broker, even if they’re known for hunting lambo’s for football quarterbacks, they’ll find you whatever you want and help ship it too...just do your research on car broker’s check out vinwiki videos and what not, I’m sure Ed bolian will point you in the right direction.
Oregon has tons
@@monikhushalpuri They are out there. I drive a 1992 Dodge diesel extended cab with a 5 spd, AC, power windows.
Florida has some good trucks too.
I have a '79 Ford f100 Custom Explorer with a 302 sbf and a 4 speed.
I grew up in Iowa.and love old vehicals. lol ,, this is the greatest video I've ever seen man... Two thumbs up guys.. love this
Your writing to script these videos is phenomenal. You deserve way more subs.
Ah yes, a non-turbo Ford diesel. The official truck of, “we‘ll take my truck to the party. It wayyy back in the woods so your car won’t make it”
Yeah... a modern FWD car will go lots of places an empty 2WD truck simply won’t go.
If you can’t climb the hill.. go in reverse. Trying to do the same in a 2WD truck only makes it worse.
Once they told me that and I drove my 69 lemans the whole way down the cow fields and back anyways!
@@calvinnickel9995 I drive a 2nd gen Mazda3 in construction settings... can confirm, will get deeper than some of the larger pick-ups where the driver doesn't know how to engage 4WD (or doesn't have it).
@@calvinnickel9995 Having driven a Cavalier on ATs 500 miles off road, this is correct. FWDs are surprisingly capable with a good set of tires.
@@pfun41 good set of tires and a driver who has enough sense to utilize every bit of that narrow wheelbase to drive around obstacles instead of through them.

Straight in the ketchup.
This reminds me of a work truck I had when I worked at a Glasgow quarry in Malvern, PA. It was a 1978 Ford F-150. The interior was steel and vinyl. You didn't armor all the interior, you sprayed it out with a hose! It was in that beautiful Orange and Black (Go Flyers!) Glasgow company paint scheme. Simple yet great truck! You could turn the steering wheel a 1/4 turn before the wheels would turn. I think it might have been the first year of electronic ignition boxes. The box usually crapped out going 70 on RT 202 with a semi tailgating you. When that happened, everything went dead, no power steering, no power brakes, no engine. I always kept a spare box behind the seat! I loved that truck!
I live how he said Miiiiint in the beginning
Definitely this guys watched zip ties
“Steering? Yeah it’s got steering you’ll do it all the time even when your going straight” 😂😂
Sounds a lot like the '76 F250 my dad owned.
Lots of cars from the 60s - mid 90s (and maybe a bit later) were like that. I miss the old _comfort_ from American Cars at the time.
@@cavemancamping You just let 'er track and give a slight nudge every now and then.
"Inside he's smiling the mile wide grin of a guy who's girlfriend got an IUD"
7:45 actually I think the non-turbo 6.9's were only 160 or 165 HP. The later 7.3 IDI's had 170. With factory turbo were rated 190.
8:15 the fuel is NOT injected before the intake valve. Only fuel injected gas engines have that. IDI diesels have a cup in the head. The piston pushes the air into that cup. In the cup is a glow plug. The glow plug helps to ignite the fuel. The pre-ignited fuel-air mixture goes back into the cylinder from the cup. It's called indirect injection because the fuel is injected into the precup and then from the precup into the cylinder.
8:50 The diesels had the T-19 whereas the gas engines had the T-18. The T-19 has less gear reduction in first gear because, as you pointed out, the diesels have a lot more torque off idle
You are correct EXCEPT...The Gassers ALSO had T19s they just had different ratios 1st-3rd...The T19 has syncro 1st gear...the T18 does not...the Half Ton Gassers got NP435s also non-synco 1st...
Dont be surprised. This is the same channel that ripped on a muscle car with a loose converter because all it was for was to rev at people at stoplights.
@@LT3Fluffy High stall torque converters do help performance, they do make the car accelerate faster. -- In this video they were also harping about the lack of steering feedback on these trucks. Frankly that's something I really like. The whole point of having a truck is that IT DOES THE WORK. If you want to do lots of hard work just hang a trailer behind your bicycle.
I see they added an incorrect correction in the video description ""Modern Direct-Injection diesels don't have a per-ignition chamber/condom nub. The computer does everything"" -- Direct vs Indirect injection has nothing to do with computers. There are many, many Direct Injected engines that are purely mechanical. Examples are the Detroit Diesel series 71 and 92, the former going back to the late 1930's. The cat 3406 was indirect injected, the 3406 was direct injected. Just different heads and whatnot but same base engine, both mechanical. The difference is in the head/piston/injection system design.
@@castirondude yup truck does the work. I just picked up an 83 model of these trucks. Already loving it
Some of the best commentary I've ever heard. You guys killed this video! Shared
Living in small town Wyoming these type of pickups are still driven everyday. And around here ones in the same condition fetch pretty good prices as well. This one is a great example and I would own one in a heartbeat.
Bro Dozers wish they could sound this MEATY
i dont know what i was expecting when i clicked this video but it wasn't this, i was thoroughly entertained the entire video. hats off to you. my grandfather had a mid 80s bronco and i loved that thing. i currently drive a 98 suburban wishing it was a k5 blazer or a mid 80s bronco. one day ...
This truck is just a dream! This is the peak of work trucks, i love it!
Brought to you by the guy who knocks on the fender and says 'real metal, today's truck aren't made like this anymore'...
That comparison at the end about elders really got me thinking about my own parents, and how am I gonna be at that age... i just wanted a car review not a early life crisis
Yup, it does that every once in a while.
Congratulations, you got both!
Welcome to RCR! First time? :)
I'm nearly 40, so I'm seeing my mother become out of touch with the world whilst struggling to come to terms with the new zietgeist and seeing what I'll become. Isn't 2020 fun?
Car reviews and life crisis are the RCR brand
I don't know Steven Gilbert, I think the game has changed for us. I'm 45, my buddy is 50, we have more slang in our speech than my 20 year old son, what with all our "Wuttup Dawg?" and still listening to heavy metal, we're both like..damn are we ever gonna grow up? We LOVE the old crochety crusty dudes that just tell shit like it is, they are the best...that aint us.
came here after a long time and i wasnt expecting all the rinaldi & kline advertisments. masterpiece.
This is one of your most underrated reviews.
That's pretty well optioned for 1984. Cruise, AC, Diesel, AM AND FM. What a luxury truck!
" For the person who judges the quality of a restaurant's food by how long it takes the food to show up"
You're goddamn right.
My family’s scrapyard had an ‘82 6.9 F350 rollback and it ran like a champ. Nothing fancy but it never failed to start. They do sound fantastic!
I have this exact truck, but it’s an f-100 ranger with a gas v8. Lol. I love how simplistic they are. All use, no thrills.
She's no Slave Lake, but it's close enough for me
Zip ties n bias plys
It's weird to think that old slave lake was a new truck once
Personally I'd love to see regular car reviews go review it or just react to it it'd be hilarious
Dakota Morrison it’s weird isn’t it?
Slave lake and this truck couldnt have had different lives. This ones "dont rev it over 3 grand!".
Slave lake lights off and immediately goes "into the ketchup!".
Rinaldi & Kline need a spot in the next Grand Theft Auto!
I had an 85 edition of this truck. I loved it. I put some upgrades on the ignition system and some creative exhaust work and it ran like a scared rat and sounded great. I had so many offers from folks to buy it from me that I eventually weakened and took one up on it. I miss that truck a lot more than I enjoyed all that money. Don't sell it, no matter what Rinaldi and Kline offer you for it.
The sound of the 6.9 IDI is so nostalgia inducing.
