2008 F450 6.4 Diesel &Torqshift transmission
Hello all,
I'm a new member and am going to buy a new truck stated in above title but a cab and chassis with a utility box. I like the new 6.4 with the PIEZO-electric fuel injectors. Instant start instead of seconds of cranking of the 6.0 liter engine. My auto transmission shop friend in Bend Ore. says the torque converters in the 6.0 liter trucks were weak. My main concern is the new beefed up torque converter and stronger gear sets in the 6.4 liter transmissions. Are they strong enough? How about the engine? Performance,reliability mileage etc. If any new truck owner have any info on this truck, I would greatly appreciate an E-mail. Thank You
