Ive been a ford diesel guy for12 years. My last Ford was a 04 with 6.0. I now currently drive a cummins. Stay away from a 6.0. Even guys who dont pull with them still have troubles. It is true you can fix all the issues these motors have but by the time you do your gonna have well over what a brand new motor costs. They are notorius for once they get around 80-100,000 for EGR cooler goin out, head gaskets goin and in some cases when the first set goes even with it fixed rite it still blows them. They like turbos too. The fuel injectors and the computer that controls your fuel system. You can fix all the issues these motors have and there fine from what im told but by the time you fix these problems youll have more than the truck is worth or be in it for more than a new motor costs. I drove mine easy and no programmer or hot rod parts in it and used it at the farm to haul my tool boxes and fuel tank fof fillin up tractors and pulled combine heads in the fall. I replaced 2 turbos and an egr valve by the time it hit 85000 and when I got rid of it I had replaced all the injectors at 700bucks a piece. So for a long time I thought I mite have one of the good ones until I hit 80000 and all my troubles started. I think anyone who says they never ahd troubles are the lucky ones or on borrowed time. There alot more expensive to maintain and fix. I would take a 7.3 with 200000 on it before I bought a 6.0. Do as you like but Id stay away from anything with a 6.0. There is more bad than good talked about them and alot of dealers wont even trade for them. Just look and see I bet youll find more 6.0s for sale than 7.3s. 7.3 outstanding motor. 6.0 not so much. Im still a big ford guy but my diesel pickups will be cummins till I feel Ford diesels are worth owning again

Today's Featured Article - An Old-Time Tractor Demonstration - by Kim Pratt. Sam was born in rural Kansas in 1926. His dad was a hard-working farmer and the children worked hard everyday to help ends meet. In the rural area he grew up in, the highlight of the week was Saturday when many people took a break from their work to go to town. It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer.
