I have found a really clean 05 6.0 dually that has a 6 spd manual. The truck has never been worked on other than service. The dealer of course says it's an awesome truck but I've been burned on a 6.0 before :) At what mileage should I expect egr, injector,oil pump,etc problems?? They are of course wanting retail $$ for this so I'd like a little direction/advice please. Thanks for the info

Everyone freaks about the 6.0 engines. I have one that has a bit over 130,000 miles and the only thing it has needed is the FICM. It needed to be replaced about 35,000 miles ago. Other than regular maintenance, nothing needed to be replaced. I do not have a tuner and that is the difference. These trucks usually don't blow head gaskets stock. If you want to haul azz get a 6.7.
