V10 getting better every year.
It is my understanding that the 2005 V10 will have 3V, 355hp and 455lbs ft torque. How much more can you get or ask for.
I thought I might want a 6.0 liter Diesel until I called my friend and I won't tell you where he works at but if you guess Intl. Harverster you could be close.
I was asking for his advice on the 6.0 liter engine and he said what ever I do, don't buy anything diesel from Ford beyond 2002. He said around they call it the trash engine. As good as the 7.3liter was the 6.0 may be just as bad.
I know a lot of people are saying that Ford may be getting in bed with Cummings and I hope so, as I don't want to see them lose market share for something that may not be their fault.
So until then my 6.8Liter gas engine will take me to Alaska again as I sure as the devil couldn't afford an extra $5000 plus for an engine and not have it work. Can you imagine the hassle of trying to get your money back or even having it fixed so it would work for you.
So guys we may have been the smart ones after all, and didn't even spend the extra money.
