Anyone know anything about it? Is this something we should run out and buy as our new boat hauler? It is a way to fight socialism, after all. -- Annoy a Liberal...practice personal responsibility! John H |

Ford has been purchasing their turbo diesels from Navistar International. The 6.0L was a disaster. The 6.4L replacement was better, but still not perfect. Ford and Navistar were in a ****ing contest about who was responsible for warranty claims on these engines. Now that the contract is up, this ad is obviously a poke in the eye to Navistar by Ford.

Eisboch Ford blames Navistar for building a junk engine, and Navistar counter- sued stating the engine was built to Ford's design specifications. That fight will go on for a few more years. |

Eisboch I noticed that also. I'm hoping to hear some good things about this engine. We'll see. |

If you mean fighting socialism by buying Ford and not GM or Chrysler, I would agree. Besides, there is a reason Ford is #1 in trucks. Mine is a F150 Lariat 5.4L gas, perfect for what I use it for, but know if I had a heavy boat I would do a F350 diesel in a heartbeat. One of the last few decent American made vehicles left actually. |
