08 ford or a 04 with 24v cummins

[agamache]

I was thinking about trading my 2004 f250 6.0l for a new 08 with the 6.4l. They are giving some pretty good discounts are here but from what i have heard the fuel millage sucks. So does anyone have an opion should i trade my truck in on a 08 or keep my 04 and put a 24v cummins

the 08's interior is AMAZING.

and i love the way it looks, i cant really tell you much more LOL.
someone will chime in who owns an 08

Hmmm... Now there is a tough question.

If you like having a warranty, but want to do mods, I would say skip the 6.4. However if don't want to do mods or don't care about not having a warranty, I say go for it.

The 2008 Superduty is one badaz truck. The interiors are super comfortable and it's just a great all around truck.

The fuel mileage isn't so bad with these trucks. I average about 15 to 15.5mpg with mine now. That is about 65% city and 35% highway driving unloaded. When I go for longer trips my mileage goes way up. I have seen as high as 21mpg on the highway. Towing a trailer is different story. I haven't really been out very much with mine to give you accurate stats. I had my trailer on for 3 days straight and in those 3 days I averaged 12.3 with a 65/35 split. But that's all I got on the trailer side. As business picks up I will have better numbers for you.

I say if you can get a great deal on a 2008, go for it.

I really like my 05 Cummins...its the rest of the truck that is questionable.

with what's in my sig, i get a pretty consitant 18-19mpg hand calculated. the vast majority of my driving is stop and go in the country w/ very little done on the highway. if i had the time and the know how, i would love to have a ford with a cummins in it

[agamache]

from what i have heard and seen on the web site destroked.com They make all the adapters and mounts th hardest part might be finding the 24v and the time

If ford could ever make a deal with cummins they'd sell like hotcakes.

[agamache]

yea that is true but i dont thank that will happen, and they have quit making the 5.9L and how nows how 6.7L will do

putting in the egr delete comes with quit a bit if work doesnt it

Im getting about 10 to 12 mpg on my 08

If you could get a killer deal....go for it
