I hate to disagree Dave but when I was trying to sell my FI truck everyone
that called had only one question "Is it a diesel?"  Upon hearing the "No"
they either hung up or asked, "Well how hard do you think it would be to stick
a diesel in there?"
No body wanted the fuel injection engine that was in the truck.  Finally I
sold it to a guy that wanted to drop a GTI engine in it.  The FI engine in the
truck ran great but nobody wanted it.  It was a pretty nice truck too.  David
Marshall had a picture of it on his pickup page for a while.  I sold it for
$1500.  If is had been a diesel at that price it would have sold in a week.
As it was it took me 6 months to sell it.
Still think its opinion?
