Re: Thinkin about gettin a diesel...
Diesels are the deal for towing and get better mileage than the gas....and last longer!
You need this one for $10,000:
2001 F350 4x4 7.3 Diesel, auto, 4- Door, long bed (8 ft), all power, 168,000 miles, runs and drives great. Has a few dents and dings since it has been a work truck and it needs a new home:
E-mail me at aftermarket4x4@cox.net if interested

Re: Thinkin about gettin a diesel...
I would avoid dodge Auto trans before 2006 dodge also had a problem with the lift pump failure and the old 53 casting that cummins used for a while that had a tendendcy to crack. I would avoid the 6.0 ford diesel alot of head issues and internals. I would also avoid the Gm 6.2 and 6.5 diesels as the 6.2 was a poorly designed motor and did not have a long life. The 6.5 had alot of computer failures and had a tendency to over heat. I would focus on a ford 7.3 , dodge with a stick shift and a duramax with a allison.
