All looks great, but I'd base numbers for the diesel on 25mpg...not the 30mpg they are quoting, rarely does a vehicle get the mileage the manufacturer first quotes. Just MHO!! -
6.7 has a few recalls. But they have a lot of tsb's, warranty extension's, example i cant keep egt sensors in stock. Cac tubes that constantly blow up. I have no doubt the 6.7 and the new diesel motors will be very reliable... Its all the crap that goes around it im worried aboutOriginally posted by witotx View PostComment

I have a 6.7 now, love it to death. I had a 5.0 before, all I ever really tow is my 21ft bassboat. the difference in the way it pulls is ridiculous, but with that being said, I will probably get the 3.0 once a tune comes out for it that takes it to the 350hp level and deletes DEF. My truck gets 14mpg to and from work everyday (90miles round trip) and 12mpg with the boat. If I can get 25mpg empty and 20with the boat than its worth it to me.Comment

Weren’t you the one asking about getting a Tesla a few weeks back?Originally posted by Young gun 12 View PostComment

yeah, then I heard about the new ford eco diesel. Decided to wait on it to come out before buying the car. If i can get a daily driver with killer mileage and have a truck, all in 1, than definitely worth it!Originally posted by sbushee View Post
Plus, the model 3 has a 2 year waiting list, so I have a while before I can get my hands on the one I wantComment

Well... I just completely lost interest then. I can’t stand that on a gas engine, just a stupid feature. I can’t imagine that would be good for a Diesel engine at all. I guess I’m going to have to be one of those guys that drives a superduty for no reason.Originally posted by rossn2 View PostComment

There is a button on the dash where you can turn this off. It also will turn off if you change driving modes. I turn it off on my truck as soon as I start it up!Originally posted by lungbuster1985 View PostComment

How do you start it after the feature is turned off? I can't find a place for the key.Originally posted by sboudreaux View PostComment

Because they have been under mandatory recall up until a month or so ago. It was suspected they were violating emissions similar to VW.Originally posted by JeffJ View Post
Knock on wood, I have yet to have any of the problems you mention. However, I plan to replace the CAC this summer after reading about the issue. I also deleted the truck fairly early on. But you are right, its a the extra crap that breaks. Just wait til they start putting DEF on gas engines. And yes its coming, a friend working for one of the big four said they already have the system designed for their half ton trucks.Originally posted by silentstalker92 View PostComment

Just saw a video that said the diesel version is going to be about as rare as the Raptor and make up only 5% of sales similar to the Raptor. If this is the case, no way I'd pay over sticker price or even MSRP. In conjunction with the trim level availabilities this may be a no-go for me.
Hopefully this is only for the first year, similar to what they did with the 10 spd transmission.Comment

Good point. Theoretical IF an econoboost were to last 400K miles-just trying to see if and when fuel savings exceeded cost difference.

And Ecoboost and a Diesel half ton have different applications even though most are going to be mall crawlers.Originally posted by JonW View PostComment
