[QUOTE="rezrider, post: 116618, member: 79"] The 6.0 had...cooling and turbo issues to say the least (all under the hood, no tranny issues)... While working in the used truck biz I heard a lot of BAAAAD stories about the 6.0 from 2003-1/2 - 2007 (possibly later but most were before 05). Trucks breaking down out of state and the driver leaving it there in discust, blowing shizzle out of the hood while towing their mule carriers, blowing the turbos out up the grapevine (interstate 5) while dragging their house... I never once heard a complaint about the 7.3 except that you couldn't "chip it right". That's because those were meant to work and work slow and hard not pedal to the metal. I still hear some going up the street with a bad turbo... spittin and sputterin... Just my 2 cents worth... :prof: [/QUOTE]
