Been a ford man for a long time , however the last crewcab powerstoke I owned I could not keep it out of the shop! Had a few F-350 gassers that gave good service working on the beach around alot of saltwater. Just my2cts.

Not to mention being able to tow ANYTHING I hook to it with out the bumper dragging the ground.
There is a good bit of Fords around home with over 150k still running on the stock turbos and injectors that still run good.

Around here, just about everyone has learned their lessons with the fords just as I have. Around here it's a cummins world.

A few people down here went to different brands after some bad early 6.0 experiences, but most are back in Fords now and glad of it. I know I am.
