I figured since everyone is showing pics of their tow rigs, I would show my score Here it is, 01 Ford, 7.3, 4X4, 64,000 miles, auto, etc. Now its time for a trialer...there is always something I need

Nice score, now thank your lucky stars it's a 7.3

Nice score, now thank your lucky stars it's a 7.3

I do that every time I get into it. We do a bunch of work for the Ford dealership here and everytime we get a 6.0 in I cringe when it starts...my boss had one (6.0) and it was in the shop for 3 weeks out of the first month he owned it.

Ours has 12,000 miles on it. It's now on it's second turbo, third set of glow plugs, and third EGR valve, second cam position sensor, and a couple of new injectors. Everybody keeps saying that for every one bad one there are millions of good ones...I must just be lucky. Anyways, the rest of the vehicle is excellent and I'm sure it'll do great things. Very sharp looking truck.

When the 6.0 runs right it is AWSOME but it will take some time to get anywhere as reliable as the Cummins.
