As some of you may know, I'm sniffing out some product on a used F350 turbo Diesel .... I'm reading forums, mags and talking to owners ... the 6.0L TD is receiving some dubious press...
Yesterday, whilst sitting in PHL waiting for a plane, I bought and read a copy of "Diesel Truck".
In the back of the mag there was a section which stated news events ... apparently Ford Motor Co. is offering a 2500 "bonus" for buyers of 2007 Ford trucks with diesel engines as (I'm quoting the mag here) "a making up for the 6.0 Litre" gesture.
I have a friend with an 04 F350 dump bed and at 29k, he just had to replace the turbocharger ....
Perhaps I should refine my search to the 7.3 (harder to find) or think about a Cummins ....
Frankly, I've never been one for American vehicles but I need a 1 ton Diesel and the big 3 have the market cornered ... for now ... *cough* toyota *cough* *cough* 2 years * cough* toyota ...
Sometimes ya get far less than what ya pay for.
