cant decide, 6.4 or 6.0

[rollsroyceguy007]

ok heres my problem, i have heard horrible things about the 6.4, especially issues with MPG and the Re-gen, all i ever hear about with 6.0s is the head gaskets, i was wondering which is a better engine, im not interested in 7.3 because the only vehicles in my area that have them are ambulances or utility trucks, thanks for the help.

If you don't chip the 6.0, & if you buy an upgraded EGR you should be ok

I would take the 6.0 over the 6.4 any day. I love the potential power of the 6.4, but to me the 6.0 is more dependable. Also, less emissions garbage on the 6.0.

I say 6.4.

(Coming from a 6.0 owner...)

I'm holding the DPF/Regen against the "dependability" of the 6.4. And of the two 6.0's in my family, they have been perfect.

It'd probably be cheaper to get a 7.3 shipped to you than a 6.0. Especially in the long run.

If i could go back to the day before i got my truck, I'd still have made the long drive out to get it rather than get a 6.0 locally.

Just a better truck IMO

is it true that powerstrokes are harder to start in the cold than for example a cummins? or does that differ between the individual engines?
