That 6.0 litre Ford diesel engine is a deal breaker for me and should be for you!
Hubby says these motors are so crammed into the nose that they're HARD to work on..... a lot of mechanics won't work on them (or you'll pay through the nose for labor)
The 6.0 was not Ford's best diesel engine, from everything I've read. It had quite a few problems (some of which were at least partly corrected during the production run).
Any engine in an E series chassis is crammed into the nose--or, more accurately, into the middle of the dashboard. The V10 is not very easy to work on in that application either, beyond the basics like changing the oil. Fortunately, it doesn't need a lot of intricate care and feeding.
