Anyone planning on buying a 2017 F-350?
I had planned on ordering a new 2016 F-350 to haul our old Lance or a new 1062, but I waited around too long. I've never been fond of buying a brand new model vehicle.

Can't think about any issue. Drove the rented 6l for about 300 miles, including pulling about 15,000lb over the Sierra. It did tow ok at freeway speeds, just moving from standing point was very poor.
It was pretty low mileage truck as well.
Would be interesting to hear from somebody who rented 6.7l and measure the performance.
Now thinking about it, my present 6l has poor start below 1600 rpm as well, but once it passes 2000 it really kicks.
Maybe at the time I was spoiled with 7.3 low end torque that could pull a house on idle.
how about owning a 6.0 and a 6.7
Both carried my close to 5K Lance 1055 and towed my 7,000 pound loaded horse trailer up over mountain passes. The 6.0 doesn't hold a candle to the 6.7 under load, slow or fast, flat or steep. it is not a contest.
