This is why I am waiting till 2009 to buy mine so you guys get all the bugs worked out and I know what to avoid with mine. Plus my existing truck will be long paid off and and I will have a year or so to save up for a down payment.

Thats good to here but you can buy a 6.8L now and it doesn't smoke, stall, idle rough, leave you sitting on the side of the road, it runs real quite, has a $5000 discount and will pull amazing RPMs (its nothin to see 4000-4500rpms!!!!). Holy cow that sounds like an amazing motor, boy am I glad I bought one a couple of years ago!!

I think it will really be a 6.397. Then four years later Ford will be nice to us and give us all a new truck that is a 6.403 to make up for their bad math and marketing.
So beat the rush and call Jeff to order one now!
