Ford is now selling the new 3.0L Powerstroke.Once it is available across all trim levels, I will be looking at getting one.I know they are in the higher trim levels. Anyone have it? What is it like to tow? What is it like as a DD?

Detroit Free Press automotive writer reviewed one in Lariat trim last month. Sticker was north of $65,400. If I recall, the diesel is not available in every trim level.

Wouldn't you want to let a little time go by before buying a brand new engine platform? There are bound to be issues with ANY newly designed eng.

Good advice....remember Fords brand new 6.0 power stroke...yikes.

If you're not locked into Ford or a full sized PU, check out the Colorado with the little DMAX diesel. A friend has had one for a couple years and loves it. Claims to get over 30 mpg cruising on the highway. He does not tow anything however.
