Unhappy Hello everybody

I just bought a 2005 F350 Lariat diesel and had my first nasty experience with it. The pipes leading into the turbo were blocked with carbon deposits and just blew off in an earth shattering explosion. I had it fixed but my confidence is a bit shaken. I started looking on the net and stumbled on this site. It's great to share experiences and hopefully help each other to solve problems. What's the track record of my truck? I hope it ain't a lemon
