We have an early 2005 f250 with a 6.0 with 195,000 on it with very few repairs. We ordered it in July 2004, took delivery in Dec. 2004. Bought extended warranty before it reached 100,000 miles. Put in 3 injectors about 120,000. FICM about 150,000. EGR cooler about 175,000. Absolutely love this pickup.
Used to be strictly GM. We bought a new 2008 Duramax in Dec. 2008. Hated that pickup other than inside the cab was quieter than Ford. Only reason we bought was we were not sold on 6.4 diesel by Ford. We got rid of before it reached 60,000 miles. Kept 2005 6.0 Ford.We also ordered a 2011 f350 with 6.7 and took delivery in Sept. 2011. It has 45,000 on it now.
The 6.7 shows it is getting 17.0 lifetime on trip meter. Has 3.31 gears with 18" factory wheels. Maybe a little too low of a ratio. Everything we are pricing now Ford is automatically putting in 3.55. Can't even get 3.31. Was wondering if we put on 20" off Lariat if it would help. We always order XLT as we don't like leather. We will probably keep 2005 6.0 just as a farm pickup. Hate to make 2011 with 6.7 in to a farm pickup already.
Whoever was talking about the power in these 6.7's is correct. We bought a low mile 2001 f250 with 7.3 a year after we bought the 6.0. The 6.0 will walk all over the 7.3 and in our situation was more reliable. The 7.3 would gel up and the 6.0 don't. Traded the 7.3 for the duramax and both the 7.3 and 6.0 had identical miles. We just liked the 6.0 a lot better as it also got a lot better fuel mileage. It gets around 15-17 empty and 10-12 pulling trailer at 70-75. The 6.7 will walk all over the 6.0 and get about 18-20 normal driving and 12-15 pulling trailer. The one trip meter for mileage has not been reset since new and total vehicle lifetime average today is 17.0.
The new 2014 we are looking at ordering is a loaded up f350 diesel crew cab 4X4 XLT with almost every option. List price is $57,880. Dealer invoice is $53,430.78 today. Rebates today are $5000 for a total out the door no trade price of $48,430.78.
