I have the 2011 F350 cc, lb, drw, Lariat edition. No problem with the engine, just a death wobble when I cross R/R tracks, had steering shock replaced and now it is back again. Went to a off road store and they stated it will cost $850.00 to cure the problem, Will invest in the cure in Marck.
I had the same problem with my previous vehicle, a 2011 F350 drw King Ranch dually.
I do think part of the problem was I was running the front tires under-inflated. Shoot, they were at the 55PSI point they were at the day I bought it.
Ran them up to 75 PSI and cupping, tire wear issues went away and they didn't do the death wobble anymore.
I can understand the price to fix the death wobble if what the fellow who runs the Powerstrokehelp.com site is correct on his theory.
Here a link to a video he made. In synopsis, his idea is that the factory caster setting is not sufficient. He moved it from 1 degree to 3 degree caster and claims to have solved the death wobble problem.

First off I don't care what kind of truck anyone owns !!! I have had a F 350 6.7 for just about a year now and have owned diesel pickups since 1992 and thought the two 7.3 powerstrokes were the best I ever owned but this 6.7 so far is putting my old 7.3's to shame Huge power, better MPG and so far the only money I have put in it is oil&filters, fuel and DEF and if your not hauling it uses very little DEF. IMO a great truck. Just look around you can't go 2 or 3 miles down the road without seeing a F250 or F350 6.7.

I have '12 6.7 PSD with ~60k miles. So far it's been a great truck that makes really good fuel economy. Not one single glitch, CEL or a trip to the shop like the other brand seams to be experiencing right now.
The updates on the '15 trucks are basically for increased HP/torque to smoke those cummins boys....Although my current truck will do that all day long! :B
