In the past decade how many times have the two diesels you guys have been talking about changed motors??? And how many times has GM changed theirs? They have led the pack for over a decade and that's coming from DIESEL POWER MAGAZINE. They were the first common rail all aluminum block diesel. JUST SAYING!!!

lol i hear that still better then that 6.0 powerchoke i had a 07 4 door dulley for work and it was a slug i'd rather have my ole hopped up 12 valve at least i could smog out smart cars an what not lol
LOL, yea I've heard quite a few negatives about the 6.0 ford motor. While I have heard negatives about the new ford 6.7 I can honestly say that i've read alot more positive than negative.........the way I look at it is that now days it doesn't matter what truck you buy there will be positives and negatives, hopefully I'll have better luck with this one than the last! agreed i also think its how you treat them rigs programmers or nice but i feel like if it was supposed to run that hard that'd do it off the line thats whats wrong with my diesel hopped it up an didn't upgrade the tranny or anything an bam my goat is limpin in 1st 2nd an reverse and my buddy has an 03 4x4 dulley put a predator programmer on it an his is a 6 speed it would slip so bad after a while when he'd drive the piss out of it lol an he took the programmer off an you cant tell it ever did anything unless you can afford to really upgrade everything its just one problem leadin to another for me atleast haha

Well Good luck Justin! There is no perfect vehicle. I had an 06 cummins 2500 and it was a total POS from the window motors,dash,& injectors. I was a major pain in my side. I am going stick with a gas. Just cost too much to fix a diesel now days.

I would BUT the only reason i'm buying new is for the 100k bumper to bumper warranty, I already inquired about tuners/chips/deletes etc and I was told no flat out.......doesn't bother me much, my dodge was fully deleted, tuned etc etc and while it was stupid fast it wasn't anything spectacular OR anything that I NEED to have now......back then I was single with no one dependin on me other than me, now I've got a little one and a GF to support.......growin up sucks but if I could I still wouldn't change a thing. its all about priorities and a fasto truck ain't one of em nowdays

The rest were junk given they were welding trucks and I run the #2 out of em but with this new stroke I got its doing pretty good alot more comfortable than all the dodges

GOOD ONE!!!! But if you were buying a GM you wouldn't have to ask any of those questions, before/after the DPF, DEF's. Why because they haven't changed. You already know what you are getting. But hey guess you'll keep taking those chances. They all are a chance BUT some chances are better than others.

And i'll also spend 15k less and have a 100k warranty

We will be calling you that after you get that ford. I just bought a 13 GM and wasn't close to 15 k more matter of fact it was way less, ford was the highest by far price wise, then GM then dodge. But hey what do I know I put 290,000 on my last one, and guess what I bought another one, ain't no switching brands here. BUT I didn't have to start a thread to ask people if the truck was worth a #%^* and cross my fingers hoping I made the right decision. Because I knew what I was getting, hence 13 years of DEPENDABILITY. Oh and the warranty thing you WILL be needing that I won't.
All is fun and well but it should make you a nice truck, THEY ALL BREAK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good luck with new ride, enjoy it we pay enough no matter what brand.

Goodness I just are my supper and now on popcorn  all bs aside in sure it ll be good rides better for sure, IMO all diesel s lost some dependability when they came out with the ULSD and the emissions crap. To answer the question my dad has friends that love em more than hate em. And how can you beat 100k warranty? BUT what kinda truck you drivin now mr. Corbell?  you know I couldn't resist

Haven't heard negative about them yet sure there are a few that break but my info coming from guys that I worked with that still depend on working on fords to make a living are getting nervous about the 6.7s they are used to having ample trucks to work on with the 6.0 and 6.4 and with the 6.7s it just isn't coming in

If you do the right stuff to a 6.0 you can make that engine bullet proof. A lot of people will disagree but my neighbor had one and him and my pops did work to it and beat the dog piss out of it. Congrats on your new truck, let me know when to wanna line up with the 5.9. Haha just messin
