That’s right, you’re going to find sick people at hospitals and problems on the Internet.  I want to know of these potential problems before spending $40-$50k to get into a new truck.  The 4.8. 5.3 and 6.0l engines were all bullet proof engines. I had a 4.8 and beat the piss (worked hard) out of it for 325,000km. They shouldn’t have stopped producing that one either.  never owned a 5.3 but they were good before they started designing them to shut down to 4cyls. Big problems with that and still ongoing with the new ones.   my 6.0L has been flawless and has also been worked its whole life so far. We got the last year of the 6.0L. I’m afraid if we trade it in, I’ll end up with the known 6.6L engine issues, that by the sounds of it, they still haven’t addressed.  And with the 6.6L only being introduced in 2020, it sounds like they still have some work to do on it.   I can’t stand ford, dont like the interior or exterior, im sure they’re solid trucks, just don’t like the looks of them.    

Great, so GM knows about it and won’t fix it, and now they’re building a new engine that’s going to take 3-4yrs more to get all the bugs out of it? Just wonderful….   they should’ve never stopped producing the 6.0L

Gm knows about this and has decided to ignore it. They are building new v8 engines in New York for my 2026 and new 2027 redesigned model.  Cant wait to hear more about these new v8 engines. 

Let me know if you will sell the 2500 private or through dealer.. I'm at 315 on my chevy.. Thanks..Rich..

I have a chum that bought an F350 4wd dually with the 460 big block with flatbed.   His numbers are not that far from my 5.9 Cummins (same type) truck. (winter fuel especially) I think he said 14mpg at 80mph going out west and back, and maybe 9 same trip with a trailer?   Just a matter of getting the right gears for your app.   I am encouraged that there is an option out there besides a clustered up rattler!   .
