Blowing actual turbos? Or just blowing the intercooler boot? There's a HUGE difference in the two. The boot is a common problem, it happened on mine at about 50k miles. The boot is made out of plastic and breaks down over time and they eventually give out, mine did it merging onto I10 right in front of a Ford dealership. They had the parts in stock and fixed it immediately. Ford is aware of the problem but their solution is to replace the part with the exact same part I've been meaning to replace mine with an aftermarket tube, they can be had for ~$200.

The turbos to the tune of around 1500 a pop now granted the drivers of the truck have some responsibility of checking their systems, and we put about 75,000 miles a year on them but yes we have 6 350's and three of them have blown the turbos and two have had the the intercooler boot fail, and don't get me started on the Ram 5500 with the issues we have had with it or the two F550 engines we have had to replace just out of warranty.
