Buying a new truck. Opinions wanted
Well, I'm not going to try to talk you out of a diesel, but if you read my post that's going right now about the 6.4, 2008 pickup, you'll see I'm having some serious problems with my truck. Diesels are not cheap to keep them running. They are very expensive when things go wrong. I tow a 38 ft...- Msgtretiredcsp

HELP!!! 6.4 troubles. At Ford garage.

They have been told by Ford to drain all the oil and to pressure up the cooling system. If it leaks coolant, could be a cracked head or cracked block. This is coming from the...- Msgtretiredcsp

Thanks Dave. I hope you're right. The service tech kinda thought the same. It just really bugs me that there was nothing I can think of that I could have done to prevent or detect this problem. I'll let everyone know what the final results are.- Msgtretiredcsp

6.4 Diesel is down.
Going home to Colorado from South Texas. I notice the coolant resivoir had puked out some coolant. I added approximately 1 1/2 gallon of mixed coolant. Got to Kerrville Tx and it had puked out some more, so I added more of the mix. Got to Carlsbad NM and stopped at Ford garage to purchase a new...- Msgtretiredcsp
