A diesel tech on another forum says as long as you don't tune a 6.0 and take care of it, it's a good engine.
If you put in studs and a few other things he says they're great.
He also says the Fords and Chevys are what keeps money in his pocket as he doesn't see many Cummins...
He's full of it! I watched not one, but FIVE 6.0's (100% stock, three of them DEtuned van engines) sour two companies on Fords! Ford sunk more than $30,000 each into three different vehicles in a (vain) attempt to keep them on the road! One van was dumped (the other two were kept and are used on short runs, CEL's on and engines sputtering and smoking), both F-450's had total engine failures (one catastrophic, throwing a rod on the highway) and were repowered with Cummins 5.9's.
