What dealership;any lot PICS??



Do you have any mods done on your 6.0?
650 FTLBS(6.4) is stronger on paper than the 6.0's power ratings .
What gives;how is this possible unless your truck has alot of mods?

I was told Ford was recomending changing oil every 10,000 miles but you must use Ford brand oil.

Jackie

If you don't want to elaborate to us about how in your vague words the 6.4 engine feels not as strong(powerful) as your stock 6.0 then why even post
Without pictures theres essentially no reason to post heck atleast verbally assert yourself validate yourself about the weak 6.4's in comparison to your stock 6.0 feel
You may have but we need pictures that is a no brainer ..

Sorry to offend you jackie the 6.4 doesn't set you back in the seat like the 6.0 I just wanted to let everyone know that they are on the lot so you can see and test drive for yourself I not an expert just like Fords but was disappointed in the power.

Jaybird,


I posted becuase there was so much speculation about when the 6.4 would be released and on the lots. Just wanted to let folks know they're out now. I was just passing by Jacky Jones dealership in Seetwater, TN and saw 2 on the lot. They offered me a test drive and I took it. Sorry I didn't have my stopwatch and my camera with me. You'll just have to take my word for it, or stick it in your you know what. No need to be such a butt hole about it.

If the truck is brand new, like under 100 miles, then it may feel underpowered

The truck has to break in before the stronger power will be felt. That ensures that everything will seat correctly upon breakin.
