I’m stuck between the 6.0 to a 6.7 reason being is the 6.0 has the torque, the boost, and the beautiful sounds but they are notorious for breaking and being a money pit but once they’re gone through and fixed right AMAZING trucks. The 6.7 however is has I few problems too EGR cooler, clogging, injection pump failure, clogged DPF, coolant leaks, etc.. but more than that a solid used 6.7 is anywhere from $30-$60,000 and I can’t see spending that much money on a used truck diesel or not. I need someone’s opinion that knows what they’re talking about. Who either has had both trucks or has had one or the other for many years.
It all depends what you’re looking for and the purpose of the truck..If you want the powerstroke platform and don’t want to spend over 60k on the truck then I’d either buy a clean body 6.0 with no bulletproofing for 12-15k and spend another 10-15k to bulletproof it or buy a bulletproof truck that’s already been done with proof of paperwork and you might spend 15-17k But if you want creature comforts then you’re gonna spend 65k plus on a 2020 and newer powerstroke
Just bought 2006 F250 6.0 4x4 with 133k on it. It seriously looks almost factory new. The interior, exterior, engine and underneath…everything looks immaculate. Whoever had it before had also replaced the stock stereo with a Pioneer flat face with Bluetooth so that was a plus too. Had a fifth wheel in it, semi hard bed cover and the stereo also has a backup camera system in it with parking sensors. Had everything I needed and got it for 13.5k. I thought it was a great deal.
@@Loosearrow_lifestyle Thanks! Just took a 1,600 mile trip to see my daughter and it did awesome. Just as good as any of my newer work trucks. Zero steering walk or anything else. I feel very blessed to have found it.
Just got an 06 really plain truck, but it's a california rust free truck in great shape otherwise. 217k miles on it. Ran me about 300 miles and i'm waiting on an IPR valve. overall I really like the truck, but I think if I have any real trouble with the engine it's getting a high pressure common rail 5.9 cummins swap. Sad ford put such a potentially iffy motor in such a great truck.
The best thing about a 6.0 is that so many people dont know how good they can be. With the right work. Its best for us if they maintain their assumptions. 😄
I did the same mods and have put on 100k problem free. The 6.0 is the best truck on the market once bullet proofed. Without a doubt, no sruds needed just reporgram rhe timing and fuel to fain hp+torque. Go with all synthetics in oil and trans fluid. Moreover, add Lucas additives your truck will love you. Ran into a diff issue....my rear pinion was leakiing and did not catch it in time. In short, service the rear with the Bar Leak additive. I aslo added a AT205 in the diff and the engine.
I have an 04 as well, turbo back straight through exhaust, sounds great! Runs great for an 18 year old truck ,just needs the maintance to be kept up on it . Theses new trucks will never Last 18 years with all the electronics!
I took mine to 500,000. Not studded. I got it at 250,000 and put another 250,000 on it. Pulled the cab to reseal the motor and decided with the high mileage it was time. Got a new drop in crate motor from power stroke two weeks ago. ARP studs, upgraded oil pump, injectors, all the goodies. Also put a new wiring harness, rearend, new transfer case(dogleg) I hate auto 4x4, new turbo, radiator, alternator, all new hoses, cab mounts, shocks, leaf springs, ball joints, tie rod ends, all the front end stuff, hubs, steering column, gearbox, hydro boost, really just too much to remember. The truck is flawless now and I couldn’t be happier with brand new, 21 year old 500,000 mile truck
I am in the same boat, sold off my 2003 Ford that literally had zero issues purchased a 2006 to get the better suspension and the truck lasted about 60 miles, still had the temp tag on it and now I’m into it another 10,000 buck for me there’s no way in hell I could pay $60-$80,000 for a new truck when I only use my truck to tow a few times a year, so justifying that kind of money for something to sit it’s just something I’m not willing to do.
I got a 2006 F250 6.0 also. It has the oil filter behind the front bumper, studded, egr upgraded. Oil cooler upgraded. Next mods are a better air intake, 4inch exhaust with cat deletes. Plus it was resealed also. HOA doesn't like stains in driveways. I tell ya, maintenance is expensive! 16 qrts of oil, filter, fuel filters, $300.
I’ve got a 2006 6.0 studded, deleted , o ringed heads, oil cooler is gone and replaced with bullet proof air to oil , blue spring, KC turbo 101 K miles and it has NEVER had a failure. I don’t give her hell I am easy on it and respect it , but since I invested money into it just as stable as my old 7.3. Also - sinister oil bypass and coolant filter kit .

You're absolutely correct. The good ones that are left and not rusted out like the 7.3 in my driveway, with 235,000 miles I paid 1500 from a friend 3 years ago people are wanting 20,000 up to 35,0000 around here in indiana for a 7.3 I'm now looking at 6.0 🤣🤣🤣🤣
You bought a 6.0 because guys like us can work on them without all the computers and modules the 6.7 have. The 6.0 is actually simple and is still a 7.3 design in alot of ways. Dont believe me, go work on the new 6.7 or try to and get back to me.
Just found a diamond in the rough , 2006 f250 super crew with 94k miles. completely stock other than an egr delete. has never seen a tune or aftermarket exhaust yet. & I can confirm the selling point was the SSSSSSTUTUUUTUTUTU 😂
I traded my 6.0 I was 30k deep into for a 09 lmm duramax dually and I would never look back. Night and day difference in reliability and towing ability. I see you going through the same situation I did.
Same. You can bullet proof them all you want. When they put you in the shop for month after month you’ll know. Best sounding truck I ever had, but could not keep it out of the shop. Never the 6.0. Never.
