6.6 duramax vs 6.0 powertroke
looking to buy a '06.5 Chevy 6.6 duramax or '06 Ford 6.0 powerstroke. Seems I get a little more pazzaz with the Ford. Which one has better reputation for reliability?

When I was looking for a used diesel truck, it seemed like I could find horror stories on ANY brand, making it look like diesel engines were made out of tin foil. I know people with five 6.0-engined trucks among them and no one experienced a failure. These are abused work trucks and one Excursion used to tow a 34' TT.
With any used vehicle, price, mileage, and how well it was maintained are all factors in my decision to buy. My truck had low mileage, all its service records, and a decent price so I bought it.
I'm a contrarian and I knew I could find a good deal on a Ford since people are scared of the 6.0.
