I'm hoping next year to sell my 98f150 and upgrade to a diesel (obviously used). I mainly search for 99-03 Powerstoke diesel or 03-06 Cummins, although since the Fords are usually cheaper that's probably what I will go with.
I was however wondering how reliable the 6.0s are when an egr delete is done. I see them on cl with the egr delete, ficm, arp studs etc. My buddy sold his 6.0 last year a month after having the egr and head studs b/c he blew another head gasket even with the "Fix" done.
I drive an 05 Ram 3500 dually with the 5.9 cummins and love the motor, just hate the rest of the truck, but every 6months to a year I have to replace the #4injector line.
I know all vehicles have thier ups and downs, I'm just trying to guage what people on here have or have had, and what thier oppions are on them.
Thanks in Advance
