I'm looking at a pretty good deal on this. Runs good, low miles. Any known issues with this model? It's a diesel but I'm not sure the engine size yet, they have to call me back

The engine would be a 6.0 PSD. I would recommend getting a OASIS report so you would have some idea what type of warranty repair/s were done at a Ford dealer. The main issue with these trucks is the oil cooler can clog and starve the EGR cooler of coolant and cause all kinds of nasty problems. Also the EGR valve will evently clog and cause some drive ability issues as well. The transmission is about as bullit proof as they come including the rest of the truck. Also look for any tuner or ask if a tuner was used. If so walk.

I don't recommend these trucks with these engines if you're a first time diesel owner.

I had a 05 and traded it in after 7 years and 170k miles with no major issues, except for the pesky EGR valve. My 6.0 truck was a really good truck so you can see where my current truck ended up in my signature.
