I think that he is still suffering from the side effects of smelling too many girls bycycle seats.

I hope Ford does not have issues with the new 6.7. They really took a hit with the 6.0's and 6.4's. These engines seem to be cursed randomly.... some no issues, others are a disaster.

My real issue is that ANY major engine work requires the cab to be removed. If you open up the hood on one of the new PSD's you literally cannot see the engine, there are a maze of hoses, lines, tubes, etc.

The Dodge and GM you can at least reach the engines.

cab removal is not required for most repairs on 6.7 trucks.

Cat, you really do know how to stir the pot, don't you.

Do you really believe thisyou post???

The Service Mgrs at 3 dealeships we deal with all say the same thing. The 6.7 has been very dependable so far. I would trust these gents much more than a hotshot forum.

I wasn't able to find the thread, but on another forum there was a post from a ford mechanic detailing his first major engine job on a 6.7 which required lifting the cab. Said it was an oil field service truck with 80K+ miles on it of hard use. When someone asked how many problems he's seen with them, he said relatively few, and typically only on the big F550 models with oversize heavy duty utility bed setups.

O and for the record, I have been considering replacing my trouble free 04 6.0 Ford with a new 6.7!

You won't be disappointed, my f350 is the only truck my daughter wants to drive

You will be extremely pleased. We have 2, one 250 almost 87k used as a hot shot truck, and my personal 350 with almost 30k. We love these new trucks. The better fuel mileage alone vs our 6.4's and 6.6 Duramax's is way up. The power on all these newer trucks is phenominal, also quiet..and I feel this 6.7 will be better (once they convince the know it alls) than their 7.3 even with all those years of refinement. These motors are built by Ford and not International..big difference, and Ford knew they had to get it right...
My buddy just bought a 11.5 Cummins HO. He has 1200 miles on her. Very Nice..he got the Long Horn eddition or something like that. Motor seems willing, very torquey but at the upper rpms is not the same as our 11 GMC or Fords. Way improved interior, much better than our GMC and close to the Ford. She has more room in the back seat combo but I dislike that cut out in the center rear seat. There will be always give and take, but I still feel for pulling a heavier load safely, Fords suspension, sway control and braking power with tow haul activated is the best, even though its exhaust brake is the worst of the 3...Thats where Ford need one improvement. Sorry for rambling on guys. Jeff
