[QUOTE="MTBSully, post: 16282295, member: 92134"] Have not read all responses in the thread. That being said I have owner 4 2005-2007 6.0 powerstrokes and have loved every single one of them. Bought my harley truck with blown head gaskets, had them done at reputable shop while doing all the other "while you're in there" stuff (dummy plugs, stand pipes, STC fitting, oil cooler etc) for $4k out the door and for the next 32k miles before I sold it never had a single issue. Only sold it because some kid gave me all the money for it and i went and bought a new Platinum ccsb 6.7. Also love that. Also had a 2005 6.0 that I bought already "bulletproof" with 225k that never game me any issues. Also had a single cab 2wd 2..6 6.0 with 220k bone stock that i tuned and beat the bag out of any never had problems. My brothers 2006 6.0 he bought bone stock at 100k and was tuned and deleted without issues until 170k when a month ago he took a wrong turn with his 40ft 5th wheel camper on the back and ended up going up a 10% grade for 3 miles at which point he boiled coolant and oil temps 240+ and finally blew it up. It should be out of the shop with gaskets and studs this week. Long story short: if you can find them without rust, they are great trucks. 6.4s have pistons issues and can cost $15-20K for a shortblock. Early 6.7s have glow plug, and fuel system issues which also can cost $10k plus. In the long run, 6.0s have become cheap to maintain. I think they got a bad rep when they first came out because the 7.3 was so damn bulletproof but good lord are they slow and lacking power lol. Love 6.0s. [/QUOTE]
