    No kidding! I snagged this one for $26,000 it had ALMOST all the options I wanted but I couldn't argue with the price and all the options it didn't have are easily added. (Fog Lights, keypad to lock/unlock and integrated trailer brake controller - although it does have one, I like the factory look better)

      a tuned 6.4 is no joke. tune/intake/exhaust they'll put down about 570rwhp

      They're a perfect storm of a factory fuel system capable of putting out lots of fuel and factory compound turbos. And International got the heads glued down pretty good. They will pop the gaskets here and there, but I've been running a 300hp tune for 33k miles now. Truck has just over 140k now

      I want a single cab grocery getter BAD! LOL

        I haven't been on the performance sections of the diesel forums for the 6.7 but I take it they're not that capable?

          No. They're laying down just shy of 500rwhp. Some touching 500rwhp. Fuel system can't deliver the fuel and you have a single turbo stage vs. compound.

          Still no slouch! Especially in your little single cab.

          But they run well enough and get good enough fuel mileage from the factory, there's less "need" to run out and throw away the warranty LOL

          My only two reservations tuning the 6.7's, especially earlier ones are turbo issues and a very small percentage (less than 1% I'd say) will lose the ECM the first time they are flashed. If I owned a 6.7, I would have the dealer flash it for any reason I could come up with that they would agree to. If it dies in their hands, they replace the ECM. If it dies in your hands, YOU replace it!

          again, very very small percentage, but I'd want them to flash it if it were my truck

            I need to make sure it has the 400/800 flash. I think the first ones had a lower hp rating.

              good call. I'd have a dealer pull the Oasis report. If it's been flashed, you're good to tune it. I prefer H&S

                  What tune? I bought MBRP exhaust and intake and still need to buy the tune. Right now I plan on buying Spartan, but I am not committed to any one brand.

                        Any trans issues yet? I have also been running the 300HD tune for about 25k miles and mines starting to slip. Has right at 107k miles at the moment. Oh and it ran 12.97 @ 102 here in SA with the same mods on 37" nittos.

                            It surprised me! I was hoping for a low 13, but I guess the temps being in the high 50s helped a lot. That and launching in 4-hi @17psi sent me to a 1.73 60ft.

                            And I love the way the 6.7s look.. kinda thought about swapping front ends so I have the best of both lol

                              Is yours a dually? I see its an F350.

                              The front is end is exactly why I have an '11. I love it. I love everything about this truck. Now I just want some rain so I can get it dirty.

                                I've got a buddy with a stout 6.4 and good luck finding a single cab period. I had a hell of a time finding this one.
                                Say hello to the bump steer for me. That odd ride from having the tires on narrow wheels will be with you for every large bump in the road with that lift.

                                Love the look without the lift.
