And 6.0 by Navistar..
So the ones that didn’t blow up are too slow to make it into the future.
The Ford dealership that fixed the turbo/exhaust manifold issue on our 3.5 under warranty has an Enterprise rental inside the building.
Most busy dealerships do. Enterprise goes to great legnths to make this happen!
Even at the killer discount rates they give the dealership, they still make money on those deals.
Sorry Joe, you left the door open!
Everyone knocks the rotary knob that looks like a giant volume knob.... but my 2021 ram 1500 hasn't failed me yet lol.
Hemi or Eco junk?
Bighorn 2wd hemi. No autostart/stop crap. Love the truck.
Yeah…
. My 2011 Raptor with 172,000 says bullshit.

Odd...but check your wiring harness that goes to the trans and such.... At around 175k on my old one...one of the plastic clips failed and dropped the harness down enough that the exhaust melted it.... created a mess. Guess its something that "can happen" on them.Yeah…
Right there with you, my wife has a new f sport hybrid, $60k for a sedan with a prius drivetrain I thought was nuts but she loves the car and takes car of it
68rfe trans has a bad reputation, typically most common thing to go out on them is the solenoid. minimal in comparison to full replacement
Already been down that road. 3 years ago. That exact issue. Ford replaced the harness from the TCM to the trans… and a new “improved” clip

I work and play with my 2500. It's reliability is not just essential its required. Its the reason I bought new.
I'm going to keep quiet and hope this extends to 30 days so I can Lemon Law it. I'd rather move on.
I have a pretty good Lemon Law attorney. I'm in San Diego, but this guy is good. Larry Hoddick in the Palm Springs area. I'm pretty sure I can get out of it when this is all over.
What hitch are you using when towing the 5th wheel? Slider hitch or standard one that mounts in the bed? Just curious for clearance issues making hard turns with the trailer.
For the 68RFE there are well built versions avail as well as preventive mods available. For example a modified valve body, strengthening plates for the solenoid stack, better converters, better filtration, and on and on. I will be looking into this when my 125k mi 8yr extended warranty is up.
With all the supply issues, the 30 day repair timeframe is being stretched and challenged in court.
Can you turn 90 degrees with that setup?
Just slightly less then. The reality is in all the years I have been camping I haven’t felt myself needing that tight of a radius, so a little loss of turn was acceptable and much much better than a slider IMO.
I make a uturn in my cul-de-sac when I come home, and it's tight
Being a mega cab the bed is already short enough and having a standard 5th wheel let alone a slider wasn’t going to work for me so going gooseneck was the only option. My last truck was a long bed quad cab, this truck we wanted a mega cab.
I'm around 41-42 overall length, and make the uturn fairly easy of there's no cars parked there, which there's usually not. When there's cars parked there I can obviously make a tighter turn, but I'm getting close to 90 degrees.
I haven’t towed with it yet (this weekend is my first) my buddy has the same set up (same truck and same length trailer) and absolutely loves it. He’s the reason I went with it.
And how many people got fucked in the mean time on the 6.0 or the Beautiful 6.4???Point taken.
Although, Ford builds their own stuff, unlike Izuzu and Cummings. I mean Chebby and Dodge!
Sorry, my bad.
Call and see if Englewood transmission works on that transmission and see if the can do the warranty work I had them do that on mine paid the extra for the stage four in the Allison. Worth the call.
