I’ve always disliked Fords and never would have considered buying one until now. It had a couple of bolts break off in the exhaust manifold but other than that, no problem. That problem was repaired under warranty. Believe or not a lot more power than the Chevy 6.0 LS, I drove before . If there was a drag race between the two, the Ford would beat the Chevy by 2 seconds. The power is good thru all of the RPM range, oh, and it has great brakes. I still can’t believe I’m saying this about a Ford, but it’s true.

Beat the 6.0 in large part due to GM using torque management, burst knock prevention, virtually non-existent power enrichment, etc. to limit power. Ridiculous! I bought HPTuner and took it all out on my '04 Sierra 2500HD. It has way more available power, gets better mileage, and is quieter.
