June build F350 6.0 w Torqshift CC SRW LB 4x4 17445 miles with zero problems, over 5000 of those miles involved towing a 9000 pound loaded horse trailer around in the mountains.

I love this truck, never seen the dealer since day one.

5700 Miles...no problems. 04 build. Driven hard enough to require new tires at this mileage...these are pretty much shot. No towing, but no problems to date.

I just had to revive my thread on the 6.0 diesel with no problems. How about you any problems or is everything all right. List your build date and the month you got your pickup.

No major problems yet with my March 1, 2003 build truck.

1) Just had 30,000 mile service done at 25,800 miles.

2) Blackstone oil reports says motor is fine and changing oil every 5,000 miles.

3) Transmission fluid was great when flushed at 25,800 miles (Blackstone report was good).

4) Only been using Motorcraft oil (15W-40) and MC filters from dealer.

5) Dealer needs to perform Turbo/Moan noise service at next oil change.

6) No problems yet with ground cable that some are being recalled for (I was told letters were in the mail).

7) A few minor cosmetic issues, but nothing close to what some have reported or had issues with.

Have 27,500 miles and all is well!!!!!!!

Thanks,

Jeff

Jeff,

Over the weekend, I drove the same road that I was on when I discovered I had the drone/moan. The drone was definitely gone. So it does work.

I think I missed it! No problems 22,500 miles. I think it fell off the first page because there were a bunch of new posts. If you want to keep this thing on the front page you will have to maintain it.

Smile Noda-Zip!

I have 5500 miles on my F-250 PSD with a build date of 03-03. No problems other than I can't keep the grin off my face when I smoke a Dura-Junk!
