I have taken quite a hiatus from the site.
Last night I traded the V10 in on a 7.3L. I went to the dealer totally with th intention of buying an SD Truck with the 6.0L... until I test drove a couple. I tell ya, I didn't think the turbo was EVER going to wind up! I just was not impressed at all. Then I saw this beauty sitting on the lot. I test drove it and, of course, loved it. I glad to be in another Ex, again. It's a red Limited.

Welcome back KC ---- Wonered where ya bin ! 
And even though you didn't make it ALL the way up to today's standards with the 6-oh,
ya WILL be happy with the mpg improvement over the v-10....
Was Texan Ford nice about your v-10 trade in ?

Actually, it was Nichols but close enough. It's all Autonation and, yes, they did very well for my trade-in, actually.

Thanks guys! I have to tell you... Although I LOVED the V10 and thought it was an incredible motor, I missed my 7.3L I had in my F250. I got to 89 miles before the needle went down to the full mark! WOW! 20+MPG sho is nice!
