I disagree - 6.0L did have its issues, fixable but not cheap - 6.4L had issues mainly related to Emissions equipment, easy fix and you have a absolute beast. They jury is out on my 6.7L for me, only 10k miles on it ( > 3,000 towing), but so far in stock form it is the most impressive truck I have owned. History is starting to build with that motor, and so far, apart from a few issues with early 2011 models, it is looking like a winner...

Me, I'd go the diesel route, but that's how I roll...

Don't like the ford get a Tundra and fill the fountain with scanks, still lighter than the shuttle

Mmmmm I do love me some skanks.

i have 6.0 that has been stellar.


you made the correct choice for now. i guess if your needs ever change you can trade up.

if you dont run the ford diesels hard you will have issues.

congrats on the new ride. 12K is a lot to haul on the bumper of a SRW pickup.

Well I ended up buying a brand new 2016 F250 with the 6.2 gasser. Towed all last week and the truck did fine. It for sure doesn't have the same pulling power as a diesel like when driving at 55 and going up a hill but just give it more gas and it keeps rolling. I didn't get the whole rig out on any major highway but they way it towed at 55 on the road with hills I don't foresee any issues with that. Truck doesn't feel like it's being pushed around but I'm sure that brakes on all 6 trailer wheels helps with that. I did a hard stop test and the whole rig stopped pretty well. I'm pretty impressed with my new F250 so far. Not sure if it was because we're in KY but I got more compliments on my truck than the boat, LOL.

Nice boat.
