You buy a new Ford diesel, you better hope you like the rentals! The new diesel is major headaches for those who own em! The last real good diesel they had was the 7.3.

The truth is, all manufacturers are having a difficult time producing a bullet-proof diesel engine that can meet or exceed the emissions requirements set forth by our federal government. The new 6.7 diesel is the closest engine we've seen to the 7.3 in years. Fortunately, we've had very few problem cases in our shop and we handle as much or more diesel work than dealers in Lafayette or Baton Rouge. Most problems are caused by user error. For example, many customers modify the exhaust system or shift strategies in an effort to gain power or fuel economy. Then when something goes wrong, they want to blame the dealer or the manufacturer. You wouldn't believe the stories I've heard......

The "GREAT W" has spoken. Until he buys Dodge or his family political friend buys one it's junk.
