Lots of Fords

As far as the quality of the truck other than the engine Ford is beyond the others.

I always love it when people say this like it was not Fords fault the engines were so bad. I had a 6.0 and took a bath when I went to sell it and I blame Ford. I have bought 3 new diesel pickups since and not one was a Ford or ever will be again. People talk about how good the truck itself is but I did not see that either. Wiper motor, door lock cylinder, vacuum hub seals, compass, rear pinion seal and a seat heater all went bad. No brand is perfect and all make lemons but I judge a company on how they handle their problems and Ford put profit above customer satisfaction. I was a Ford fan but when a company screws me out of 10 grand I don't go back and try again. I also don't think I am alone on this.

No, you're certainly not alone, and I don't blame you. I'll qualify this by stating that I've never owned a 6.0, or 6.4 truck, but I have owned nothing but Fords since I was 18 years old (39 years ago :o ). The trucks, the dealers, as well as Ford have always been great. That is why, when I decided to step into a diesel, I stayed with them.

The bragging rights banter can be fun, but I just like American trucks in general, and really wish everyone here the best experience with whatever you choose. Lord knows with what they cost nowadays we deserve it!
