If the truck is paid for... I would bullet proof it. I know Brian from BTS has bought many orphan 6.0 and 6.4 trucks. There are known weak points in these trucks, and he can make a solid 450 HP truck out of them for under $4500. I have the 7.3 much better out of the box, but the 6.0 can out do me when fixed! I've got the BTS 4R100 after the second transmission failure. My point is if you want to keep it, it's going to be an investment, much cheaper than new truck payments.
You do make a valid point that it can be fixed. But $4,500 cash goes a long way towards a vehicle that does not need bullet proofing to make it reliable.
It should have been bullet proofed at the factory from day one :h
However much to my dismay bullet proofing is a $4500.00 option for the OP.
