I dont like it when people criticize the motor and make claims when they dont even own one. It sounds like some people are doing just that. Ive had few problems with the truck but its fine now.

My 7.3 will still be running when ford decides what POS diesel its going to use next. 6.0, 6.4 wow they are really setting the bar high with those 2.

how can say that the 6.4 is a pos. When word is that the 6.4 is getting the same track record as the 7.3 in the amount of repairs. And the 6.4 is not haveing problems it is the computer and epa crap. Lets put the same crap on your 7.3 and see how well it does and what you have to say then.

No worries! I really meant General David Sarnoff, the guy who started RCA, and it looks like I meant General Motors! BEEEEEGGG difference! I shouldn't have been obscure like that, as it tends to confuse.
When I saw a reference to your ham call, and the word "Nipper" (the dog on the RCA Victor logo), I thought you might have been a part of the thousands who worked for RCA over the years. We were all like family.
Anyway, enough of this off-topic stuff...
Back to the important things!

I personally wouldn't trade my 7.3 for a 08 because the warrenty is so strict, but out of all the new trucks I think they are beautiful.

It really is comparing apples to oranges.
