I had to bite the bullet and get a new one!!!! I had my 2006 6.0 PSD in for service 5 times in the last 5 months. It had 7,000 miles on it and already got a new transmission and a new turbo. I could see the writing on the wall!! My wife actualy suggested we go look at new ones and after reading the posts here I decide to take a look. Through the bad times I still wanted a Ford.
I bought a White F350 CC. Ford out did themselves with these trucks. What a ride and by far the best looking truck on the road. My wife actualy took it to work again this morning. She said it rides better than her Expedition. Cant wait to raise it a few inches and start customizing.

Your truck and your wife sound way cool. I thought my 04 350 CC was a nice ride but the new 08 rides and handles much better. Love the tighter turning too. Just be ready for alot of anti 6.4L, anti new truck, anti diesel and anti Ford posts.

When you actually get to drive it, you probably will make up all kinds of reasons to haul stuff around. Just asked my buddy down here on Marco Island if he wants me to haul his other boat down from Pa. after Christmas. I've become a towing junkie....

congrats on your new ride!!! I agree, my truck rides better than my wifes expedition. I wish i had a nickel for every head that turned to look at my new truck, it would help offset the cost!!!
