How dumb is it to buy a 6.0L power stroke?
How dumb is it to buy a extended cab, long bed pickup and expect to take it to do light off roading in Colorado? It would mostly be a daily driver.

Why do you need such a big, expensive to operate truck?

Haul motorcycles to the race track, haul dirtbikes to the mountains, haul me ass to my office job five days a week, and haul guns and crap into the woods to shoot a couple times a month.
My WRX doesn't cut it.

Here's a simple flowchart:
Does your truck earn you money? if yes, get diesel. if not, get gas.
Any of the 1500s with the bigger engine would be adequate too.
>>28301
Denver is fun
And you'd be better off with gas
>>28167
If you're not towing a lot a diesel isn't worth it.
>>28301
there's nothing more expensive than a cheap 6.0

$8k for a truck with 70,000 miles? How bad can it be?
>>28301
>Because diesel is cool. Also, there is a really cheap 6.0 with a manual nearby.
you've already made up your mind, stop fishing for validation

They blow up, have bad engine accessories. Would recommend head studs.
>>28330
Because bulletproofing it costs another 8k.
>>28553
Maybe not 8k but definitely around 5k

No, the 6.0 is absolute trash. They are cheap for a reason and that is because they are hideously unreliable.

It'd be ok I suppose as long as you make sure the oil and EGR coolers are new and then disable EGR. After that you've only got a couple of sensors and a couple of pita high pressure rail o-rings to deal with as far as common failures go.
