My BIL spent close to 30k on a 2006 Dodge Ram SLT 3500, I see F350 Lariats with the 6.0 @ 90k miles on dealer lots for about 20k. For the difference ya could do a lot of work on the truck or have an "oh shoot" emergency fund if needed.
I guess my thing is there were a lot more units of ford 6.0's sold and for the number of them I sure see a TON of them on the roads up here, almost 50% of all diesels.
