You done good on the warranty Ronnie. My buddy has one with just over 200,000 on it. Pulls delivery trailer with it every day. In the last 6 mo he has spent over 7,000 on it.

Thanks guys. I did buy a 5 year / 100,000 mile warranty that has a $100 copay. Paid as much for the warranty as I have for some trucks I have bought in my younger days!! But like said with it being a diesel and me knowing nothing about them I wanted to be covered just in case.

Butch I am glad to hear you are getting your truck fixed and will be back to pulling the boat soon. Ronnie that is a fine looking ride and I hope you get many years of service out of it.
Sorry to hear about your truck Butch. The new power plant should keep that bow tie going for many years.
Great looking truck Ronnie! Now to put a proper hitch on the camper so you can get the camper and boat to the lake at the same time.
The 6.0 is great, until its not.
This one getting head studs, EGR delete and a few other minors. $5k!
Thanks for the info Shawn, may be time to trade![]()

Don't be skeered Ronnie. Those are great trucks. Like strmwalker said, problems with earlier ones.
Get a Warranty if any way possible for that diesel. You will not regret it.. Not trying to scare you , but the 6.0 is known for multiple issues . just traded mine last year. The truck itself is great , cant say the same about the motor . How many miles are on the motor ?
Good freinds ,Good food ,and Good fish , what else can you ask for ?
I got a 5 year/100000 miles that cover 6300+ toward the motor and covers about everything on the truck and drive train. Has a $100 out of pocket deductible. The truck has 119ooo on it with 2900 hours on the engine. I'm going to drive it the same as any other truck I have had over the years but will not keep it if it becomes a money pit. Heck they already are a money pit at the price they cost![]()
