FWIW, I have the 05 EB with the 6.0 and love it. It has all the power I need and still gives a great ride. Granted I only have 17k on it but the little I do drive it I enjoy it.

Get the red one, it's killer!

Plus, taking a page from your book, where you say a person can do a few things to make the 6.0 reliable, a person can do a few things to the 7.3 too, and they'd have a faster, more powerful rig when compared to the 6.0, plus (in my opinion), with the proven reliability, it will still outlast the 6.0!

Tough crowd. Thanks for the link, though. That guy is building a great web site...regardless of which way you swing.

I know it's not the model you want,but I will be selling my 00 at the end of August after I drop # 3 at college. With only one at home it's time for Dad to get the Early Bronco he's always wanted.
