Plastic is great to use on an engine. Just ask owners of GM intake manifolds. :B
Shame on them for trying a new technology that had potential to save money at the same time producing a stronger part. For shame...for shame. Then, to add insult to injury, they realized it wasn't working out and switched back. I can't believe a company would do that. :R
Mid year and running changes and evolution of a design happens all the time. No big deal. Ford decided to go back to steel oil pans. Ram fixed their huge def blunder. GM is fixing the deadly ignition switches and brake lines. GMC axed the rear steer. We should all be happy the mfg's correct and advance on their designs. We as consumers win.
Careful, this reads as an intelligent post. That might get this thread locked! LOLDavinD wrote:

Is that from the street driving to the RAM dealer up the block? Chris
Nope, I had a 6.7 F350. I would be lying if I didn't say I sometimes miss that truck. Brand loyalty is stupid in my opinion. I will give both the Ram and the Ford a drive.catfishmontana wrote:
