[QUOTE="retrieverman, post: 3572250, member: 24452"] Given the additional info, I would recommend a V10 or 7.3 diesel from those years, but I would strongly discourage you from considering a 6.0 or 6.4 diesel. I’ve had a couple 7.3 diesels that served me well. Surprisingly, I never had any trouble out of either of my 6.0’s, but I know A BUNCH of folks that had horrible experiences. I’ve only had one 6.4 and wouldn’t wish that train wreck on anyone (2 motors in 83k miles). My F550 has a V10, and I like it really well. For reference, I pull my 13k pound skid steer on a 30 foot dual tandem trailer with my F250 and F350 with 6.2l gas motors, and both pull it well. I hope that helps at least a little.:anyone: [/QUOTE]
