I have a 99 Ford F250 Triton v10 that just ejected a spark plug at 150,000 miles. The way I see it, it has enough miles on it to be freshened up. I called around and the engine shop wants $3,600 to rebuild it, no warranty because its a v10. For $4,400 dollars buys me a new crate engine from Ford, 3 year warranty. I keep hearing all these horror stories about the new trucks, Ford, GM, and Ram. And it brings me to this question: Should I rebuild the truck, Engine, Tranny, Drive shaft, Front End, Interior, Paint, Rims, Tires, and a few other minor things spending 15k+, or should I buy a new, new to me truck, for 9-11 thousand. Money is always and issue anymore, but it'd be rebuild and I know how its been taken care of because I've owned this truck since 32,000 miles. What do you guys think?

At any rate we decided that a compression test was in order so we could verify the internal engine status. That way we wouldn't buy any tune up parts until we were sure that the engine was in reasonable mechanical condition. Our tests showed a fictional compression reading of 85, 80, 82 and 86 psi. That is well within a
