Oh no. I know of quite a few fleet trucks laid up waiting on engine replacements right now. Hopefully they fixed it by now but I doubt it. If it wasn't for that stupid shite I'd be strongly considering one right now.

Unfortunately it looks like a chevy 6.6 gasser is my only option in the 3/4 ton market right now if I don't want engine trouble

thanks, well that stinks because I love the 2500 6.4 more than any truck on the road but I just can't get past their poor reliability

I have owned 8 6.7 Ford Powerstrokes, replaced one EGT sensor in 2014 under warranty. Only repair done on any of them during my ownership. Also had 2 Ford work trucks and 2 F150 no problems with any of them.

I did have a 2020 Ram Limited 2500 for a work truck, interior was great, at the time stickered over $80k which was insane pre=covid, door hinge started to make the famous creak around 5k miles, had way less power than ford, and towing a heavy boat over a bridge like I55 or spillway was miserable with the coil spring rear.

Looked at some RAM ads the other day showing 20k ofF HD trucks, they're still all $90k plus after those discounts on a truck that hasn't been updated in 5 years.
