No problems with my 06 6.0. Had no problems with a tuned 04 either. I don't suffer from the 6.0 hypochondriac syndrome.

6.0 hypochondriac syndrome?

I would hardly call $45,000 for a vehicle a hypochondriatic problem..

I would call it lackofqualityatic syndrome!

Going to be buying this month.

That was my hope when I bought my 04 for Transport work ... nothing but problems from about 35,000 miles on ... tranny took a $4,000 dump at 135,000 miles ... good luck ...

well my 94 had a great motor, but the transmission was horrible, 4 torque converters, broke 4 gear shaft, smoked clutches twice. E4OD sucks

That's why I posted about the 06. I do know that every brand has problems. I see the dodge pickups lined up at the dodge dealer for repairs, and chevy's too.

no pics yet, but it will look the same as every other stock F350 XLT CC LB medium wedgewood blue, that is until spring when I throw in the Snap on Road box, 75 gallon fuel tank, oxy-acetylene tanks and compressor. Then if I am having problems on the farm the welder goes in too. I finally get to yank the tools and acc. in Nov. when we are finished up outdoors.

Gunna drop a toy hauler on the back when we head for the sand dunes too.
