Problems w/6.0, 6.4 & 6.7 PowerStroke diesels video

I found this video that seems to give a good explanation of issues RVers might face with some Ford diesel pickups. The 7.3L was one of the best engines ever put in a diesel pickup (according to Wiki)...

My dad has a 99 or 00 7.3 and it is loud to the point it can be impossible to carry on a conversation at times. It rides like a tractor, bogs down at times and and has a terrible turning radius too. No issues beyond normal maintenance stuff in 15+ years is hard to argue with, though.

The amazing thing is the current Super Duty utilizes the same basic chassis today (and it shows).
