It's a 2013 6.7, got it 6 months ago with 60k, now 66k so far so good haha! Bought it because the 2001 7.3 f250 I bought new was 2wd, great for NC but not so great in WV in the winter.
Pulls the camper much better up and down the mountains, I set the cruise on 75 mph coming back from Clarksburg WV to Winston and it never got below 70 for sure. Normally in the Ex or my other work truck I sold I couldn't use the cruise in the mountains and would speed up going down the hills to keep my speed going up. Tow haul is nice to have too.
Fuel mileage so far hasn't been as good as the old trusty 7.3 though haha. Highway, 16, city 13, towing 75 through the WV mountains 7.8 lol. Always get 10ish towing 72ish with the 7.3's, but the cruise prolly doesn't help my mpg's.
Bought the extended warranty just in case, but for the most part they have been pretty reliable.
I usually drive the Ex unless i'm working to keep miles off the truck, and in 250k miles on the Ex i've found as long as I know how the change fuel pump, water pump, alternator, I should be good to go!!
