I sold my 01 X some time ago and am now ready to buy and 05. I seem to recall a post way back when saying that I one should buy a "05" after a given date. Something about 6.0's having an updated something or other after such and such date. I am loosing my mind?

Find one built after 1/31/05 and will be good to go. RoyC __________________ 2005 Limited, 6.0L PSD, 4X2, Mineral Gray, 3.73 LS.
