Good evening everyone. Just joined the club by purchasing a 2006 F350 PSD DRW with 49k miles. It's well taken care of truck IMHO for $22k and completely stock. I bought the truck to pull a 35 ft RV with a good chance to pull a fifth wheel in the near future.
I've been on this site for a couple weeks researching about the 6.0 and pulled the trigger to buy one. I put most of money in buying the truck and have a few bucks left over. I got the Scanguage II to monitor gauges and this weekend, I plan on changing oil with synthetic, fuel filters, and a coolent flush while installing a coolant filter. I think that should hold me over the summer and depending on $$$, I'll do a bulletproof oil/egr cooler and Arp studs in the winter.
I am skeptical though, with the condition of this truck and how well It has been taken care of (all maintenance completed on time), maybe I should just leave it stock as much as possible and when the temps showing a need for a repair on coolers, I should do the above then. Your thoughts?
