Ford New v. Used F-250

[Texx]

The V10 is a terrible engine...lots of crank breakage! My brother had one in a box truck as a backup for his racing team when they ran the carrera panamericana last year. Got it allllllll the way down the mexican peninsula, where it broke the crank Friend here had one that made it all the way to 52000 before crapping out...no V10 for me, thanks

Also Diesel takes twice the amount of money to service, three times the amount to rebuild. If you are only towing a rig and that is it then why buy diesel. A V-10 will out pull a PSD on a hill, I have seen it done. All you have to do is a couple things to the motor.

I would agree on the rebuild, not so much on the service, unless you take everything to the dealer.

As far as a v10 pulling a PSD on a hill, either the hills aren't very steep or there is no altitude involved. Come out west, put equal weight behind/on both trucks and hit the Rockies or the Sierras.
