re: Another F-250 Thread - Used 2003 King Ranch with 6.0L

DO NOT BUY A 6.0! Especially an '03 (the first year they made them) like the last guy said, lots of problems with them. If you look hard enough you can find an 03' with the 7.3L and have much fewer issues with it in the long run. If you offered me a 6.0 with 30,000 miles and a 7.3 with 250,000 miles I'm taking the 7.3.

What he said. The 7.3 is wayyy more reliable than the 6.0.

I owned a 7.3 and it's a great motor.
I currently own a 6.0 Lariat. I have had no trouble BUT I am religious about oil changes and fuel filter changes. From all that i have read, and that's a lot, keeping everything clean is the key.
If you don't run a tuner, you don't need the head studs.
The problem with them is the coolant and the EGR. A coolant bypass filter is must. EGR delete also would be nice.
