Was a diesel mechanic for a summer, the power stroke is a good motor and I like the f series more than other pickups but they came in the most often for maintenance, take that how you will. Cummins didn’t break much so it was rare to see them but it was damn near a pleasure to work on them, the old diesel rams give you so much room to work with and don’t put stupid shit in the way. If every single GM executive goes to hell exclusively for the Duramax I wouldn’t consider that unjust.
I need to get off this thread because I’m getting angry lol. FORD DIESELS ARE GARBAGE! Scratch that, Fords are garbage. Cummins are pretty good. Duramax, garbage.
Depends on the Ford. imo Ford Australia’s final two Falcon models were unkillable, and contained an engine everyone’s now wanting to get their hands on due to its bulletproof construction and potential for huge, cheap power.
Source; I’ve owned an FG Falcon from new which now has over 450,000km on it and never once had any issues (also thousands of taxi drivers over 15 years can’t be wrong.)
