What do you like better about your new truck vs your old 7.3?

HI K50, The interior is way ahead, the seats are more comfortable, the engine is more powerful, way faster, the brakes are better, the ride is better, the frame stronger, The only things that I like about the 7.3 is the MPG & the fact that you can use tranny fluid, bio, veggy oil, in the diesel without any ill effect. NOW I want to see if this 6.4 will last like my 7.3 ????

Yeah, I hear you on that. Those 7.3s last forever.

That's cool though. I haven't driven one of the new Fords yet. I had an '06 F350 crew cab long box 4x4 SRW 6.0 last year as a work truck with the company I was with, it was pretty nice. Got jack all for fuel economy, but it was a comfy truck, felt solid, rode well, yeah everything on it was pretty good.

HEY K50, On my 7.3 I would do the oil change every 4,000 miles on the 6.4 i'm going to do them every 5,000 miles !!

i love my 08 6.4 its got a **** load of power, right now i get about 12 mpg, but i dont drive it much. the only thing i do not like about it is all the engine components packed in the engine compartment. this summer i gunna take the dpf off and prgram it with eaither a SCT or Spartan and the milahe will go up.

Yeah, who wants to hear themselves think, or order a coffee at a drive-thru without having to shut your machine down.

that's one of the reasons I got tired of the cummins noise is nice but too much can get annoying I love hearing a cummins roar but I like driving in peace and the ford helps with that a lot I blow out a lot less speakers not trying so hard to hear my radio on long trips
