Location: minocqua, wi. | do your homework on the 6.0's and find someone who knows what to do with one. i suffered with the first one (an '05) early, then learned and now i feel like i have a secret. nobody wants them, ford won't take them on trade very often so they are ripe for the picking. lots of people try to sell them as if they are a normal diesel truck but make sure to let them know that you know what they have and you may be the only way they will get rid of it ... honesty falls over their faces quickly LOL.
based on the experiences i've had, i believe part of what makes them tick is doing some shut-off in the computer in areas that it creates its own problems or false indicators. when you have them running and breathing right, they are fantastic and reliable.
the box on this truck will likely start looking bad in a year or two ... hopefully two and i'll have close to $300k on it by then with 4 years of great use. i'll just go down to Texas to find another one.
