Looks like a sweet truck, not mine but thought I would share.

I like everything about this truck except the 6.4 I just don't trust that engine, some are great others are disasters.

I will now hide under the chair....

That truck with those miles would scare me too. I can see in the pics that the egr coolers are still intact, they are the killers of these engines.

It is just to the mileage that "issues" if they are going to happen are.

I also heard about radiator issues and the 6.4?

There were some radiator issues on these trucks. Seem to mostly be on the 08's. Mishimoto has a solution now. If I had an 08 I would probably go the Mishimoto route.

I am really enjoying mine and have a fair amount of confidence in it being a long-term member of my stable now that I have deleted it. Quiet as my wife's Tahoe on the road, 650 horsepower - 1200 ftlbs, shift on the fly tuning, TONS of room in the back seat. The only thing not to like is that it isn't an F650........

I'd be scared of it not deleted and the radiator issue not fixed. But 6.4's are wicked to drive... I love them

The 6.4 issues never fully go away. My F 550 is an 08 and I know first hand. Had a settlement out of court with Ford and they bought the motor back.
