Power Steering Ho$e$
I was stunned to find out that local aftermarket return hoses can be had for $20 and under (Gates and Edelmann) while the Dealership wants $160 for one with a 3 day wait.
Is the factory one significantly better?
They also wanted $30/foot of bulk pressure hose. really?
*I'm new to diesel/ heavy duty trucks, so I may be out of place. If these prices are right and they are worth it, I'll be heading right over to the dealership with all y'all's blessings (or not if you think it's nuts)

Rule of thumb for my trucks:
If it has moving parts try to get it from Ford. Otherwise parts store stuff is probably ok. Generally speaking.
