did some research for a buddy that's a ford junkie. found that the 7.3L was the best thing since sliced bread for FORD. had the truck a month so far(the problems) nice ehaust leak appeared on the trip home from AZ to CA. then the tranny blew up last week. I will NEVER EVER even consider a ford. I beat my dodge to death and it keeps asking for more.
