By all accounts the new Ford built 6.7 is a good motor but nothing is bulletproof and I have heard stories that they are sensitive to water in the fuel and the Bosch HPFP a weak point in the system because of that issue. The Ford extended warranty is a good purchase if you own a diesel truck or any high cost vehicle. It is a known fact that the Ford 6.0L was just a bad motor and prone to a lot of failures. There are many people that have made mods to them and made them work well and a few lucky ones that never had any issues at all. I have never been a fan of diesel motors due to the complexity and cost to do repairs and have never needed enough power to pull my house off of it's foundation either. I opted for the Ford 6.8L V-10 when it was still available and have loved that decision since the day I made it. All 3 of the HD truck makers are producing good products now and all have their good and bad points.

Thank you, I am enjoying the Duramax. Towed the trailer around my area, freeway included, and it is nice.
