Currently own 09 f250 H&S tuned powerstroke with 140k. Previously I owned a 04 4x4 screw, I've regretted my decision for the last year. I don't pull anything and only drive about 3miles to work, So today is test drive day I'm learning towards a 5.0, used of coarse so I'm asking if there's any known problems some of you have experienced lately..? Thanks for the advice

3 miles to work? Save your $, buy a Huffy

so much for the saying, "you can never own to much truck".

i had an opportunity to buy my departed fathers gorgeous 11k mile F250 Diesel Lariat long bed crew very cheap. ive regretted not doing so for the last few years but thanks for making me feel like i made the right choice. i dont tow and its just my daily driver who still sometimes struggles for parking spots and makes tight fits in garages.

the 5.0 is a great engine, mine has been trouble free since new and @ 13k miles currently. even the owner of the dealership (who is an old friend) said "you cant go wrong with the coyote engine".

good luck and hope you enjoy your F150 as much as the rest of us!
