[FordDoctor]

Hello from a World away, America to exact. I just joined your forum out of curiosity and I am absolutely fascinated! How did I find this site? Well, I am the publisher of forddoctorsdts.com, a diesel technician web site in North America. I monitor the traffic to my site and noticed a large number of hits on an aptitude test featured on the site coming from this forum. Naturally I had to check you guys out!

I am a Ford Diesel technician with 21+ years in the industry 19 of which with Ford. Most of my experience is with Ford F-Series trucks, Super Duty's and medium duty trucks but I have experience with cars too. As I look over some of the topics I see many similarities to American Forums in the discussions but I also don't recognize many of the models Australians drive despite some familiar names. Maybe I just need to look around some more!

A couple of years ago, I met a gentleman from Australia who was temporarily living in the U.S. on business. He owned a new Ford Diesel truck and said that he planned on bringing it back "home" with him despite the cost of converting it to meet Australian regulations. He told me that there really aren't any trucks like the ones here which leads me to ask if there are many large imported or domestic pick-up trucks in your country?
