the white smoke was a injector stuck open, and the 6.0 has a prob with EGR coolers leaking into the intake which the steam pops the head gaskets, as for the 6.0 chevy I had one and it towed like a turd, after the first time going up a rather large bridge and I thought the motor was going to come apart from the RPM to maintain 65mph I went out and bought a brand new Dmax

I have spent considerable time in michigan and think I know what bridge you are talking about. anyways congrats on spending 10k+ to go over a bridge that takes about a minute or less to cross and to tow around an otherwise pancake flat state. Must be nice to have money to spend foolishly.
