Needing info
I am new to the diesel world. If there are already post about this then fill free to point me there. I am looking at buying one but my budget is falling in 2008 area. I've reading up and doing my homework and have seen the 6.4's seem to be better than the 6.0. My budget is also putting the mileage up in 150's. Is it worth the purchase and what should I look for. I am needing the diesel to pull a camper I took over from my grandfather.

Welcome to FTE. This is an often asked question. Lots of different opinions on your situation. My personal opinion is to find a clean 06 or 07 6.0. There are problem free high mileage 6.4s out there, but they are the exception and not the rule. Again, one guy's opinion who has owned all 4 engines in the Super Duty.

If budget is a concern I wouldn't be looking at a high mile diesel truck. The 6.4L is a good engine, but not without its issues, and can set you back thousands when they break. Can you swing $8,000+ for a new fuel system if you get a tank of bad fuel?
