[QUOTE="gimmie11s, post: 16715516, member: 17953"] Ford trucks have too many cams and engines that are too complicated for what you describe, OP. The answer for you is a 99-06 2500HD GM truck with the iron 6.0 pushrod v8. This motor will literally never die. They have been pulled apart at 300k miles only to find cross hatch still in the cylinder walls. They are very overbuilt motors. I say 2500HD because you will then have the 4l80e trans that is also near indestructible. The 4l60 in the half ton is weaker and less desirable IMO for a work truck. We have a 2002 Suburban 2500 with the 6.0 and 4l80 with 220k miles--Only thing i have done to that truck is change fluids and a brake booster. Trans is original and has never been rebuilt, motor is also original and still has 42psi hot oil pressure at idle. [/QUOTE]
