Question New truck

Well, so far I am about $47,000 into a free camper. A friend gave me a 1972 cabover he had sitting around his vacation property. I took a hard look at my beloved 04 F250 and realized I would be over GVRW with a full tank of gas and this old wood framed relic. Just then Ford anounced the 3k 0% and I now have an 06 FX4 F350 Lariet with most of the bells and whistles. What I need to know is:
What has changed / been fixed / cropped up / between the Jan 04 6.0 and the May 06 6.0?

Anyone?

with the 6.0, almost everything. i mean everything there were over 100 changes from 05 to 06 (just small stuff like the shaving the angles of exhaust ports for example) but of course there are the big overhauls like injectors, turbo, and all that good stuff. i have a lot of friends with powerstrokes, and out of them 5 are 05 or 06 and we have had ZERO problems! enjoy!!
keep it ford

Re: New Truck

Thanks Goped, I was hoping it would be good news!
The truck seems to be noticeably less noisy, did they trickle down the insulation they have been touting on the F150 for so long?
