Wow, thanx! I'm not a ford fan, but I watched all 6 clips nonstop,
Glad I don't have a 6.0, may get a 7.3 if the 6.5 catches fire... and melts the Burb. Prolly not.
Good luck Kenny.
I love the 7.3. Sounds wonderful, has lots or power from the factory, very durable(as long as you do your oil changes), isn't plagued with all the emissions stuff to go wrong and can very easily give a stock cummins a run for its money.
Kenny, the reason you can get the 6.0 cheaper than the 7.3 is for the same reason the 6.5 doesn't cost much to own these days. Its all about word of mouth. Sure WE may have solved many of the issues of the 6.5 in the same way the Ford guys solved the issues with the 6.0, but to average Joe- He is going to know that the 6.0 has a bad reputation. Most people don't want to buy a truck and then have to dump additional money into it without planning on it.
In essence, in the same way we can get the 6.5 for cheap because we know what to do with them and what makes them tick, you can use that to your advantage and get a used 6.0 for cheap and keep it running just as great as a 7.3
