@Myk1_SP you clearly don't understand business owners buy new diesels drive em a year trade em they depreciate em as a tax write-off and Essentially drive it for free

I have a 97 7.3 F350 SRW, a 97 Landcruiser, an 06 LBZ, and the wife drives an 01 Excursion 7.3 and she also has a 97 Tahoe 2door Z71 with the 6.5 TD. We had that 6.5 recently replaced with a rebuilt Peninsular Diesel Marine 6.5. I may spend more on fuel and not have all the tech, but what I do have is a garage full of trucks that are reliable, tough, simple to work on, and really don't the deliberate engineered obsolescence these new vehicles have. Plus no stupid emissions shit on my trucks (even my EGR's are blocked off with computer reflashed) and waay more reliable. I made a mistake in 2018 of buying a new DURAMAX LTZ. That truck was nice for about 20k mikes then everything went wrong and it left me on the side of the road or in limp mode at least once every few months. 80k POS I sold that truck to some kid and his dad actually paid 50k for it...but the bill of sale said "gift".....🤫 Probably shared waay too much in this comment section but fuck it.

Of course I do. Mines in my service truck. Weighs 18k lbs. engine has 13k hours on it, 430,000kms. These engines are not hard to work with. Thankfully they are built really well with the exception of a few small items. Pretty easy to put them together properly. Especially nowadays where ford re engineered a lot of parts. And of course the aftermarket. I’ve had to do far more 6.7, 6.4 and 7.3 engine swaps due to catastrophic failure than any 6.0. Actually, the only 6.0s I’ve seen actually fail to the point of engine replacement was from two main reasons, one, having the stock length pushrods be used with a larger cam after the heads were machines, which bottomed out the lifters and smashed the cam lobes. And the second one was just pure abuse. Nitrous and a massive amount of fuel.

Last week I saw two of these with the King Ranch/Lariat package sitting side by side outside of a shop... Dont know if they belonged to the same owner, but damn.

The 6.0 had an electric fan clutch. When it failed the engine would overheat and the torque-to-yield head bolts would stretch resulting in blown head gaskets. That is when the engine would need to be bulletproofed. This can be avoided by using an adapter from Bulletproof Diesel that allows you to use a fan clutch from a 1997 powerstroke. The only downside is that the truck will get slightly less fuel mileage.

@@Hettdizzle that it does. The last 6.0l I have, parked it for about a month, now it won't start, batterys good, everything else checks out, I would just pull it in my garage and fix the damn thing, but I'm to busy on the road making money with my 6 7s that don't leave my sitting along side the road with injector problems, ficm, cam sensors, crank sensors, flex plate, head gaskets etc. I'll get the pos running one of these days when I actually have time, until then its just a eye sore in my yard 🤬

Looks more like you need to learn how to be a mechanic if it sits that long. Jus saying.. Remove egr and cooler and put in new oil cooler and hpop and studs....get 4 or 5 inch exhaust and that beast runs forever. Dont tune it. Thats why most everyone's blow. They try for 450hp and push it too hard.... But hard not to when it pulls like a champ. 💯

@@leroijr407 its more job dependent, I've had 3 6.0s, 2 were tuned, ones still stock, the one I still own is stock. Quite frankly yes I should have learned the first time and never bought more than the one. So for some context i was using the trucks for hot shot trucking, started with a 32ft gooseneck stock the 6.0 was a absolute dog, even tuned they are pathetically under torqued, after about 3 years needless to say the tuned 6.0s gave the most problems, head gaskets, injectors, electrical problems, ect. The stock had the least problems, but is horribly underpowered. Combined I've probably had most every problem with the 6.0 that there is. So when I went to a 40ft gooseneck, I also went to a 1st gen 6.7 ps and never looked back, the 6.7 still wasn't a overly torquey engine but always worked, now I have 2 3rd gen 6.7s with over 100k pulling a 40ft gooseneck since new, and no issues, definitely have better torque than the 1st gen powerstroke, great engines. But the kicker is my buddy has a 2004 cummins, stock the thing had so much more torque than the 6.0ls, now he's pushing 500hp with a built trans, tows with it every day and no issues at all! If I wasn't such a ford fanatic back then I could have saved myself thousands by just buying a fricken cummins! All in all the 6.0 isn't trash, but its not for anyone who's actually serious about working, towing a 22ft camper once a month and daily driving most of its life it'll be fine, but for serious towing buy a 6.7 ps, or cummins!

I bought 1 with 64000 took 20gs to fix thank God for warrantys

I've got a friend that bulletproof'd his immediately and it's still running good. I dunno what bulletproof means..🤔🤷‍♂️

My 2007, 6.0 has over 300k miles and it was just well maintained no head studs. Recently the turbo failed and oil go in the intake. This caused a short duration runaway which I stopped by pulling the tubes on turbo. The damage had been done and over the next 6 months my head gaskets started leaking. I ended up parking it since January because diesel is so high, driving a ranger to save fuel costs. Basically loved the truck had it for 5 years and not too much done with it. I'll fix the head gaskets and stud it when cost go back down.

Never buy a 6.0

Ford did a great job on their own once they called it quits with Navistar.

if its been bulletproofed sure.

My dad was a ford service director until he retired in 2012. He said the only real way to fix the 6L PS is with a can of gas and a pack of matches. Then go buy something else.

6.0s use to be the goat in early 2000s atleast for tuning

I wonder but then to rip out the 6.0 and put a triton v10 in it instead

Should you buy a 6.0 in 2022,, shouldn’t buy a 6.0 ever

I'm gonna go with fuck no for a 1000 Alex

I plowed so many driveways behind that dashboard driven. So many miles made so much money. Fixed it so many times

Garbage, had one. Don’t go there unless you enjoy heartbreak 💔

Do you need a 6 liter engine in your work vehicle? No, not at all.

With 75k miles. Hell no😂 I want ti to break before I buy it so I don't have to fix it the first time 😂

No, only if you have a spare Cummins laying around

It looks and sounds great, I'd take it

@@rock-uu7qr no thanks, I don’t care for trucks to begin with. I just worked on these 6.0 engines and was trying to warn someone. Plus dodge is no longer American bubbi. Dodge is owned by Fiat which is Italian and the Italians have some of the worst quality. Hence why Ford 150 is still the number one sold vehicle in the US. Gm and Dodge would sell their souls to get the numbers Ford sells in F150. Yes the duramax is a powerful engine however it’s surrounded by horrible build quality and reliability issues.
