But just remember, McDonalds sells the most burgers too. Sure they'll do the trick, but doesn't mean they're good for you! Lol
Lets remember that the when the 6.0 was new it sold WAAAAAAY better than the other two. Man; Fords advertising is top notch and second to none!! :B
Funny thing is I still see way more 6.0 PSD still on the road today than the other two. Funny how marketing works!
Yep, keep pouring piles of money in repairs into them and they keep going! :B. Been there, done that. :SFishOnOne wrote:

Did not see a single 6.0 or 6.4 when in the Elkhart, IN area for two weeks. Over 1/2 of the Fords were 7.3's. I am referring to DOT RV and HotShot haulers.
I don't think I really seen any 6.0 or 6.4 that much for this industry. The only reason the 7.3 or 5.9 are still around is because of their lack of emissions equipment.
Oh come on Fish, the reason there are still 7.3 trucks and no 6.0 or 6.4 trucks is because they are light years ahead in reliability. And a lot of the issues with the 6.0 and 6.4 trucks have NOTHING to do with emissions equipment. ;)Powerdude wrote:
Yep, it is. For 36-37k, you get air conditioning, vinyl seats, maybe a cruise control "upgrade", and gas power. Want diesel, put your first-born up for sale.
I'm truck shopping right now. It has been an eye-opening and future wallet-emptying experience.
It's nuts....so I must be nuts...
Don't short change your self! Buying new get what you want/need and don't regret it it later.- Yep, it is. For 36-37k, you get air conditioning, vinyl seats, maybe a cruise control "upgrade", and gas power. Want diesel, put your first-born up for sale.

Oh, make no mistake Gypsy, The 'Yoda dealer had plenty of loaded to the gills Tundra CrewMax models on the lot that would rank right up there with some of the pricing insanity I've seen for an F-150, or 1500 Silverado, or Ram. The Double Cab was pretty pedestrian in the options department. Only real fluff(but cerainly useful) was the rear camera which is part of the tow package and spray in bedliner.
I think they're all nuts on price anymore, which explains why I haven't purchased a new 4 wheel anything in 12 years..........But hey, if a person can swing it, go with God, it's good for the economy.
Yes-a $36,000.00 pickup is a "stripper" these days.....- Your right about the price. They want to make them all luxury vehicles.
