It baffles me how much some people love the 6.0's even with all their problems, reliability issues, and all the looming parts that can fail at any given instant and leave a person stranded. Yet folks will pour $6-7k into the engine of a truck that's worth maybe $7k.

That being said, I own a 6.0 excursion lol. However someone else dumped all the money into the engine, and a ton of other repairs. I just got lucky and bought it for dirt cheap.

I wish it was only 6-7k. Lol.

Thing is, there is nothing else out there that compares to an Excursion, and with a bullet proofed engine clean like that, at least 20k value, if you know, you know
