This is one of your "only factual posts"?

Are you and the others in your "Non Ford Enthusiast" cartel determined to prevent the rest of us from enjoying this Forum?

No jeb...I ain't buying it.
Your factual posts are typically misleading at best. There is nothing factual about probably thousands of buybacks. There is nothing factual about your opinion.
Your only mission here has been nothing less than to try to keep even just one person from buying a 6.0. You should be reasonably happy that mission may have been accomplished. In fact, probably thousands of people have decided not to buy a Ford 6.0 directly due to your outstannding efforts. Again, mission accomplished.
Give youerself a medal for bravery under fire, video tape a re-enactment, run for President. Then go away.
Go away jeb...you no longer serve any benefit here. You are obsolete. Your thoughts, opinions, and factual posts have no credibilty an therefore are no longer effective. Go burn another bridge somewhere else.

Asking me to stop posting becuase you don't like what my experiences are and what my opinions are based on that experience seems to say you only want good news posters here. If so, you should really put that in guidelines.
You're jumping to conclusions. I'm only responding to obvious attempts, like yours here (There must be a site that you can go to and enjoy your subliminal message sending.), IMO, to drive me off the board. Sorry, I've got real world experience with this motor and I intend to continue to share them. I'm sorry you view them as negative, I do not. I view them as factual from a non-brand blind person.

Since you don't get the hint, let me state it in terms even you understand. Go away unless you have something enthusiastic to say!

Sorry if my posts have offened you I think you take it way to personal, I am a ford truck man but the one I have has had many problems and there has been well documented problems with the mpgs on some trucks, that has always been my major problem, and it would be almost impossible to get a dsb on that ford does not post any mpg rating on 250 or350 trucks so it is bassically my word against the dealers word and so far I not found a dealer that was willing to help and so my problem continues. all I want is ford to fix my truck, there is no other truck I want. the truth is you seem to take a great deal of pleasure in calling people names if they have any other view then yours. it is really pretty sad, maybe the rules should be changed and no bad expirences should be allowed then what would you do, call the people who choose to leave there trucks stock names.

Jeb it is well document in this forum and read by all, EVERY TIME one little thing is incorrect with the 6.0 YOU jump on it and try to make sure YOUR opinion (you have only owned one) is known by all……….THAT opinion is all 6.0’s are bad going to go bad or…..you strive to make sure that every positive statement is countered by a negative statement by you.
When someone ask for documentation, it is hearsay, or…..or you turn it and say do you remember everything that is said.....well let me tell you something I am not making these statements........you are.......back them up with facts all of our members want that from YOU…soon
I don't think it's fair to anyone to sweep the 6.0 issues under the rug. Funny thing NO one has tried…. this is the Ford Truck ENTHUSIASTS forum; we accept the problems and move one.
You have gotten more mileage (word wise) out of your ONE SINGLE EXPERIENCE than any of us could ever hope for.

Crack in exhaust "Y" pipe. A/C is Pulling in exhaust fumes from engine area. When you put it on Max you are recirculating air form inside cab. Not from outside. This has been seen before.

KW, engine build is 9/30/03 and I have 9553 miles. I have aleady taken the truck 4 times for the same problem and they have not been able to find the problem. I called the dealership and told them what you replied with and they told me yeah we have seen that problem. I asked if they had seen it before why havent they checked it before. No answer, I told them they would see me bright and early tomorrow morning.
Thanks
Thanks
