My son is looking for a TV and stumbled across a 2008 ford 3500 srw crew,king ranch interior .its only got 29000 actual miles and the price is where even Chevy guys like us are thinking.its an estate ...

Truck runs great, better mileage etc. I am not really brand loyal( more of a GM guy really) so I bought this truck based on price alone. Haven't had one single issue yet still on original rad. If I were to it again though, I'd buy something else, since you're in a position to do that, that would be my advise. JMHO.
I have had zero engine problems in 60,000 miles on 2008. Change the oil like clockwork, fuel filters every second oil change and yearly flush the rest of the fluids. The biggest problem with the 6.4 is the way the regeneration of the DPF works, and the EGR cooling system. There are lots of posts on the forums about removing these items and how great the trucks run after these modifications, might have to try it myself one day.
