Truck Bashing
 
Can we please give it a rest...

We all like our trucks, thats why we stand up for them but it gets annoying when so many threads are filled with bashing. I have done my share of it, but lets call a truce. It doesnt help new members who need help, it just makes them question their decision. WE ALL have a comnon interest, so why fight about who's is better. To each their own.

Thanks, Brandon:c:

thats exactly what i mean, thanks for the great example:moon:

how many 6.0s have you owned?

gunman41mag 02-01-2012 07:06 PM

I had a 1999 7.3 & I waited till the 6.4 came out before I bought another F O R D truck, just cause my 7.3 was running fine, just saying:w2:

GuyWithA24Valve 02-01-2012 10:09 PM

Agreed. I've driven a few 7.3s and a few Duramaxes and I wouldn't mind owning either.

Smarty=Cummins 02-01-2012 10:25 PM

They are all good trucks intill they break down.:tu:

H.R.D 02-01-2012 10:36 PM

Don't get me wrong folks I'm a Cummins man to the fullest. But they all have their goods and bads. :c:

Diesel_Daddy6.0 02-01-2012 10:38 PM

I just love how many 6.0L haters there are, and the fact that 90% of them have never owned one. The biggest problem I've had with my rig in the 3 1/2 years I've owned it was my fuel pump going out right after I bought it and the dealership replaced that under warranty. Everyone loves the 7.3L and for good reason, the 99-03 was the best time for it, but when it comes down to it, you line one up against a 6.0 that has the EGR and head studs done and have both trucks with equal mods (programmer, exhaust, intake) the 6.0 is gonna win, it's the same way with putting a 6.0 against a 6.4L

DieselDanBoy 02-01-2012 10:46 PM

I gave up a long time ago, it doesnt matter what anyone says about anybody else's truck, someone's always got something better. they're all pieces of $hit, it just depends on which one you like most :c:

Diesel_Daddy6.0 02-01-2012 10:56 PM

To add onto my previous post. There will always be rivalry, but keep the bashing down. Do you really think saying "6.slow, 6.uh oh, powerjoke" and everything else really gets under our skin? Not to me it doesn't, it just gets REALLY annoying. I can't speak for other guys, but I knew exactly what I was getting into when I bought my truck.

i get "powerchoke" A LOT. But then again i live at a school where everyone and their brother (and extended family :argh:) owns a cummins.

1999stroker 02-01-2012 11:24 PM

I think it's funny how all the cummins guy hate on ford guys and really for guys don't bash on chevy guys and vise versa. Lol. It's like there making up for something else. Just messing but it's like I always say to each his own it's watever fits you.


Strokin' Away

H.R.D 02-01-2012 11:27 PM

The anti-bashing thread is starting to turn in to a pro-bashing thread.....:w2:

From what ive noticed the cummins and duramax guys normally don't pick on each other,

what i don't like is the fact of these Kids ( even though im 19 myself ) can just plug a programmer into their truck and make it smoke, they think they are cool cause they can go fast and smoke alot,

to me that is pretty lame, With my truck Ive got work into it to make it the way it is. So Im proud.


Id buy a 6.0 even though im a major cummins fan, It'd have to have headstuds and an egr delete. after that it is almost bulletproof like the 7.3, and pretty quick out of the box,

Ill admit i do bash fords, but ive got a reason, I work on them ALOT at work where our fleet of dumptrucks are all fords with 6.0s and 5.4 gassers,

im sorry but no way 6.slow is a valid bash people always say that but obviously people that say that have not been around one

RAW 02-02-2012 10:03 AM

They all have problems, weaknesses, and downfalls. Some more then others. At the end of the day, if it gets you home and you like it, that's all that matters. :c:

Thats exactly what i mean, they bash um cause they say that their "friends dad" owned one and it had problems...



But like you said, it doesnt bother me, i knew what i bought too. :c:

gunman41mag 02-02-2012 02:09 PM

I catch hell, cause I bought a 6.4, but in the 3 years & 3 months I've owned it, it hasn't giving me any problems:nope:

Youngblood 02-02-2012 02:23 PM

I can say MY DAD owned a 6.0 when i was still in high school and it gave him so many problems he said **** diesels period and now owns a 2010 tundra :td:, thats why i stayed away from ford when i bought my first diesel, and my choice was based on experience, it's really gay sitting along side the highway with a truck that won't start and it being 90 degrees out. :argh:

MechanicalDiesel 02-02-2012 09:08 PM

Ive been having more bashing from the guys with the gas engines than anything. Man I had someone tell me there 8.1L V8 was better than my diesel, I just laughed and said come see me when that 8.1 gets to 180,000 miles lets compare how much you spent on reapirs and parts to me on mine. But seriously its all preference really they all get the job done. Every vehicle will have problems, I have no problems with any of the big 3. My main reason for getting the cummins is the reliability and cheapness of the 12 valve p-pump. And honestly I love those 6.0L powerstrokes they sound wicked and are pretty quick. :c:

COLETRA1N 02-03-2012 10:43 AM

Big gassers in heavy duties are worthless IMO. My friends dad works for a company that does brickwork for factories and stuff and they have 5 ford duallies ranging from 7.3 to 6.7. They also have a v10 dually which is worthless they tow heavy everyday and when one of the diesels went down on the highway the gasser didnt have enough grunt to pull the trailer up some of the hills on the highway :s: . Honestly I get more flack from 7.3L owners about my truck, I use to have one but one performance trans and sucky suspension later and I was done. My truck is faster, nicer, rides better, tows better and most of them seem to have sticks stuck up their a$$

Absolutely, these engine can run like a raped ape when built up right, and no other exhaust tone has a more wicked sound IMO. Then there is always the Powerstroke currently known as the Cummins eater (I'm not bashing just hear me out)...the 6.4L monster, with Aaron Rudolph taking some gold medals away from 12V and 24V trucks, laying down 1200HP+ pulls

gunman41mag 02-18-2012 02:30 AM

All diesel trucks are good, it's just that we have certain likes about certain brands:humm:

COLETRA1N 02-18-2012 11:06 AM

farmerdude 02-26-2012 01:08 PM

gunman41mag 02-26-2012 01:35 PM

I've owned 4 pick-up truck, two FORD F-250, FORD RANGER, & a toyota tiny pick-up, that couldn't do nothing:argh: I don't bash trucks:w2:
