This Is The First Time

in two years of Excursion 6.0L PSD ownership, I don't like the truck or it doesn't like me.

That's all

It's a love/hate relationship we have with our trucks. When all the bugs are squashed out of mine, i feel better about her.

Odd that a 6.0 makes someone feel bad.

If mine could talk, it would tell me Thank you over and over again

Mine's cranky too, when I try to start it after forgetting to plug it in and it's 15F out, and I still have 15w-40 in my engine instead of 5w-40 winter oil.

You are lucky that you are still working on your 6.0, I was going to ship my Excursion to your place so you can tear it apart

Even before it's visit to PSE, I went through whatever fluids and filters. The PO took care of it, but really didn't...

Already spent more than $5K on it the last two years and still giving me headache. Worst than a high maintenance chic

I love my v10. U would have to pay me to drive a 6.0 or 7.3 over my v10. Nice to go out and starts right up and not to mention the cost to up keep is pretty cheap. Could always do a v10 swap and sell the 6.0
