Rest of truck was mint. I'm at 290k kms. So far I've replaced 3 injectors and deleted the EGR. Probably the second best truck I've ever owned behind my '96 F350 7.3 PS. I plan to drive it for another 5 years. But the '07s were far more refined motor wise than the 03 to 05 versions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, mostly just the truck or a 2000-2500 # trailer. And I plow with it. Edited August 25, 2017 by Blackstar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well theres your answer....very hard to sell a 6 leaker unless you want to take a big loss in comparison to other motors. Ford tried to sue navistar because of all the warranty claims on that motor....but navistar said fuck you...you wanna sue...were not gonna giveyou the new 6.4 ps for your 08s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(almost did a month ago, '07 Harley). A lot of the issues had been dealt with by then. My '04 6.0 was a money pit though. I'd have a harder time buying a 6.4. The 6.0's are bad for top end issues (Heads and head gaskets) but the 6.4's are bad in the bottom end (pistons and cranks). Both have known turbo issues.
