So I have an 05 6.0 f350. I LOVE the truck. Its been a great rig since I've owned it. It gets good mileage and has more power than a person would ever need.
However. It's eating coolant. With the egr deleted the only thing I can think of is heads/or gaskets. A quite expensive fix.
I'm thinking of downsizing. The truck is a crew long box and it's huge. The only thing I ever would want the diesel for is towing my boat. My boat isn't huge so a half ton would cover it effortlessly. I also use it to haul loads of firewood for winter heating. I originally bought it to tow my mud truck. Mud truck got sold before the powerstroke ever got hooked up to it....life.
I'm really stuck here since I do not want to get rid of my powerstroke because I don't think a half ton gasser would match it in ANY way. Except maybe ride quality...and parking.
So my question is...what would you do?
I can afford to get it fixed but it seems like 3 - 5 thousand is redamndicoulous. For a repair cost.
I would want to trade into a crew cad short box half tonner. OR I have considered going to the 6.4litre diesel.
Let's hear it
