Ford 7.3 Diesel...only 185 HP
Hard to believe that the first 7.3 was only 185 horsepower. Was also IDI (In Direct Injection) and non turbo for those who were not paying attention to diesel powered trucks back in the late 80's.:...

Another thing I like to wonder about is are these new diesels going to be around in 30 years like my 6.2. I don't see a lot of these things around any more but I still run into one from time to time. I don't think they were ever regarded as bullet proof as a pillar of reliability, but they are so simple I can wrench on it myself. Kind of a hobby like a lot of the people over at the DieselPlace.com. In 20-30 years it will be very interesting to see if there are 2010-2015 model year diesels floating around, and I doubt most people will be able to wrench on them in their driveway.
