***Duplicate post with changed subject line***
"Short Wave Sportfishing" wrote in message ... By the way, not to change the subject, but I went and looked at a new pickup this morning - 2006 F-250 $x$ $uper Cab with the 6 liter diesel. Dunno - going to take the boat over tomorrow morning and test drive the truck with the boat in tow. Did you do the test tow? I forgot to mention another thing about the 6.0L. They came out with an upgrade to the engine control software (was installed on mine based on recall). The software change causes the engine to have reduced emissions when cold, but cuts back the power significantly until the engine warms up. A side benefit is that it is a bit quieter at cold idle than before the software update. I noticed it right away after mine was updated. The next morning it felt sluggish until it warmed up, then it ran normally. Thought I'd mention it in the event that your tow test was with a cold engine. Eisboch |
