Diesel Trucks

My 6.7 is shoe horned into the SD engine bay Better with egr gone, but that would be a real weird spot to mount it

Just wondering what everyone’s experience has been the last few years. Looking at a new Ford or GM but of course the internet is generally full of complaints and not a balanced comparison. Any opinions on overall quality and reliability? Owned many GM’s but never a Ford. Drive them both and they are nice but who knows longer term. Thanks.

I had 2016, 2019 and 2021 Sierra HD trucks and now a 2024 Sierra HD Ultimate. The ‘19 and ‘21 trucks in particular never had an issue but the ‘24 has a bunch of software/electronics gremlins. I knew that was the risk buying the first year of the new electrical architecture but couldn’t help myself as I loved the interior. Maybe 25 will have some bugs worked out.

Thank you for all the replies. Went with a 24 F350. First Ford for me but they all seem to have pros and cons. Time will tell I guess.

You'll have to keep us updated on how you like it

I've got 7,500 miles on my 24' F350 so far and I really like it so far, great truck. It's been awhile since I had a Ford. Been a diehard Cummins guy. I hope it's as good and reliable as my last Ram. I put over 200,000 on my 18' Megacab and loved it, great truck.

That’s good news. I’m coming off a 10 duramax with 350k on it. Solid truck and have only done ball joints and changed the oil so I have high hopes.

I have a different term for your optimism with that choice.

Knocked out the first 2000 km and man do I love this truck. I am super impressed with everything so far. Some really nice thoughts went into the cab space and features. Nice smooth power and really quiet.

9000 km now and still really impressed. Only 1 issue. Had a rear brake caliper act up. Grabbed a couple times and got hot. Awaiting new caliper but is very random so no big deal. Sled deck mounted and ready for a few more miles on the highway.
