X2 on the 6.0. All the Ford guys tell me it had its problems early on, but mines an 06, not many problems at all of note. Running it in my F350. More truck than I wanted or need, but was a sweet deal, and seems to get better mileage than you guys are posting? Only really calculated it once at 19, towing to Mead. but I'm not running Earthmover Tires either.
Now I wouldn't be without it! Towed a boat twice over hill and dale to Kingman from Phoenix, set the cruise at 70, only guage that really moved was the boost guage. Only complaint is it's so tall it won't clear my garage (No lift either!), not that It could otherwise, with a boat and most of the parts to put 4 more together in there anyway, but would be nice to fit it in if I wanted too!
My first truck, honestly, was a 92 Dakota Club Cab V6! Truck worked real good, and really would be able to haul damn near anything we would do with it. I once hooked up to my old mans TD9 Dozer on his trailer with it, roughly 8500 lbs or so together, and pulled it pretty easily for about 5 miles to a new jobsite for him. Backroads, mind you, not highway speeds! lol!
Woulda bought a smaller truck, but wanted a full size bed and a cab big enough to camp in if necessary!
Besides, the kids or anyone else riding with me have room to be comfy as all real water is at least a 60 minute trek for me.
