from the www.thedieselstop.com

and i quote

"Well, I'm a Furd person through and through, but this is disturbing. We recieved our brand new f-350 superduty crewcab dually on thursday. It is going to be used as an initial response fire truck to get to outlying areas of our refinery in case of a grass fire in the summer. (We are loading a self contained skid in the back).
Well, the chief ( Who will be driving it for everyday use in the plant) goes to pick it up at the shop where stripes are being put on, gets half way back to the refinery and the motor starts clanking like crazy. So he pulls over and calls Furd and they tow it to the dealership. He calls them back later to find out what is wrong, the service manager says that they fired it up to pull it off the wrecker and it goes Kablam!!! .... rod out the side of the block. He says that 120 engines in the F-350 SD were shipped with " the wrong bolts in the crankshaft". Yikes, would have been nice if they checked on this while it sat on the lot for a few weeks waiting to be given to us. Kinda makes me wonder what is going on at Furd-Intersmashable these days. So maybe a month from now we will be gwtting our "New" truck.

i think this guy might be a troll notice he spells ford just like we do on the tdr furd
