Well I can vouch for the fords .... I have one .... sell it .. go back and get the dodge ... you'll regret the ford purchace .. promise

 

dodge... not even a close call

i work on all the oil burners every day and they all have some drawback
its just hard to beat the 12v for overall longevity

 

My Dodge isn't perfect, but I do like it.

 

So the question on my mind is, why a 6.0? If you're willing to go as old as a 12v Cummins, why not a 7.3?

 

because its newer and more than likely a lot cheaper or same price as a 7.3 or 12v!! my neighbor has a 07 6.0 ex cab shortbed pickup with a 8' western plow on it been for sale for over a year already only wants $7500 there the most problematic motor ive ever seen... you get what you pay for, there's a reason why people want g00d money for there older 12v and those 7.3.. imho if i could id put a 12v in everything i own!! i can do with out the dodge but never the cummins!

 

For some reason, the first thing that popped into my head was my ZX10R with a Cummins in it.
