Geoped, did I read your other post correct that you have already logged 16,000 miles on your truck? If so you must spend a lot of time on the road.


Hoping to pick up my F350 SRW 6.4 this week and can't wait. Can you report your experience so far with the truck? You should be broken in by now, what kind of difference did you notice as you got a bit more miles on the truck in the power/mileage department?

jarepackard, to report for my friend, he is closing in on 4k, still no problems! he says the truck (like most diesels) runs smoother every time he drives it. we towed a 12K toy hauler last weekend to pismo and it did great! 4wheel drive worked great and the ride, even on the beach was extremely plush. iterior is much nicer. so far all three of my buddies who took the 6.4 plunge are doing great.
just to let future buyers know il be monitering these 3 trucks for the next few months and post the good and the bad.
milage update
truck 1 3850
truck 2 1680
truck 3 700
