o, by the way the early 2000's do not use a mecanical diode in the e4od auto. that's a good thing.

don't buy one that has used a chip....and buy one with low miles and has never had the trans fluid changed...

have an 03 6.0 , when we got it had it reflashed for rolling idle, runs great since (sept 04) love ours, got 21.5 mpg this weekend to Va Beach.

These guy's will have your answers.

I have an '05 6.0L, never looked at fords before this one so I cant help you. I do know that the early gen 6.0L where pretty bad but they have suposedly fixed many of the problems. Im liking mine so far @ 5000/mls

05 dually with 6.0 has over 30k miles without a minutes trouble and will roast the tires or a Honda at will . 06 King Ranch F350 with 6.0 has 1700 miles with no trouble except I should've got a bigger lift ..

That is the look, that is what I have and it works, just stay with GM. They make black vehicles
