I've got a 2005 F250 with a 6.0L

I think you got one of the later 6.0s......have you had much trouble with it?-I have a friend who bought an '04 (early) and it was in the dealership more than he had it for the first year...

Have a 2000 = great trucks - much better and less issues that the newer one. If its been taken care of it will service you well for a long time. Like anything there have been some issues but they are allot smaller IMHO that what followed

This is my second one - didn't go with the duallies this time, Custom badging, ram air (68 Shelby style) hood, induction, trans and gauge kits. Haven't chipped it yet

Jeff, Yours sounds like a GREAT truck!! I love my 7.3!!

BEST TUNER for them is the "DP" Diablo Preditor-I think they are called....check in with the guys over at the site I mentioned.....I haven't chipped mine yet either, but I've added a coolant filter system, and a HPX line, done a water pump, and basic maintenance-my LATE '99 has only 87k original miles.....this is what I pull my trailer that I haul the Mustang with....

My '05 is a crewcab 4x4 automatic and I have had no prob;ems. It is primarily used to pull a large horse trailer, stock trailer, and car trailer. It pulls just fine. The early 6.0's were problematic. As with any diesel its critical to stay on top of the maintenance.
