2007 Ford f350? Known issues?
I'm looking at a pretty good deal on this. Runs good, low miles. Any known issues with this model? It's a diesel but I'm not sure the engine size yet, they have to call me back

I have owned my 2004 6.0 since it was new. It's not chipped and well maintained. It's been a great truck for us. It is mainly used on fifth wheel trips for pulling and touring around.
Proper maintenance is key on a 6.0 also chipping and turning up boost creates to much cylinder pressure and stretches stock studs and blows head gaskets. Good clean synthetic oil and clean Motorcraft fuel filters save injectors. Clean coolant prevents oil coolers from plugging up. A stock 6.0 will perform fine if it is well maintained. If you chip it your pocketbook will scream. If you do all the mods you can turn it up and it will be fine.
Our truck has plenty of power and does a great job pulling.
A bad mechanic is another 6.0 disaster.
