My father is getting rid of his 05 F350 6.0L/torqshift because of all the issues that it has had, 5 injectors-horrible mileage-and a recurring problem with the turbo, all this in 38,000 miles. All those problems after having a 99 F350 7.3L with 110,000 problem free miles!
He first looked at Dodge, but they just didn't do anything for him, just to plain. Then he looked at Chevy and found one that he liked, but the dealership wouldn't work with him on the price at all. So today went to another Chevy dealer to get a price, which was much better. But on the way home he swung into the Ford dealer to take a look at the new SD's. After taking a 09 F250 for a drive and really liked it!! So he started to price up a 2010 F350 lariat, super cab, long box, DRW, FX4 package. And really liked the price that the dealership was able to work up.
But the only thing that he is worried about is if the 6.4L will have as many issues as the 6.0L's are known for. I know of 2 early production 08's that were bought back under the lemon law, but those are the only new SD's that I have heard of with any real issues. So does he have anything to worry about with the 6.4L?
