[QUOTE="Corky, post: 438036, member: 7045"] Funny that you should mention that Brute! I have a buddy who is a master diesel mechanic at the local Ford place and he has been telling me the same thing since Ford started playing musical engines every year. I was considering dumping our 05 for one of the new 450's and he advised me to wait at least a year or 2 in hopes that FMC will quit making major engine changes long enough to get the bugs worked out. He was telling me about the flamethrower effect (guess the new EGR valve setup was not quite right and every now and then for no apparent reason the trucks were shooting 3-4 foot flames out the exhaust. Definitely cool to watch, but not so much for the guy sitting next to you at the stop light). He also mentioned the horrible fuel mileage the other day, but on the up-side he did say everyone he has talked to has raved about the pulling power and the amazing power-band they are seeing with the new turbo setup.
