nobody is bullying. id put my notorious 6.0 up against a dodge anytime, and you would put your dodge up against a ford..... i was just sayin that more people said to keep the ford on this thread.

exactly, i feel the same way. i love my 6.0, but i hated my 3 dodges... its all about personal experiences

and ive owned 2 fords, 3 dodges, and 2 chevys... so im not a "fan boy"

If the trans is the only thing wrong, build the trans...

OR go buy some other truck and wait for that transmission to give up too... It's a weak point on all the makes.. Just fix it and move on...

Every truck will have issues, if you went around selling a vehicle everytime it had an issue, you will lose your **** in vehicle taxes...

Fix the tranny save up some money and buy you a cummins. In my eyes ford messed up when they put the 6.0 in there trucks. I am a big fan of the ford 7.3 and if they would have kept it I would have one. Say what you want but I think the law suit speaks for it self regarding the 6.0

All I have to say is fawk Dodge.......My fords I lost the colant system and headgaskets. The 98.4 24v good luck finding out the electrical issues on that pig. My 08 was at the dealer more than i had it and my 04 would die every time you turn the wheels. Dodge is an electrical nightmare. I would own a brand new one though. But with my fords and chevys the problems have all been something expensive but fixable. They have never been in the shop for 2 months chaseing wires.

I wondering what electrical problem y'all are talking about? Been around these forums for yrs. and haven't read a whole of electrical problem threads. Mostly about Trans and fuel problems.

i agree with most, thier are a lot of people building rock solid transmissions, or you can swap to a six speed. keep the ford.

If you were going to get a newer CR cummins MANUAL, it would be worth it. Anything else and you would be downgrading
