I was thinking since the Ford 6.0 is always in need of repair, there must be plenty of good mechanics with lots of experience.
I dont believe so. 6.0 only ran 4 years in pickups and are relatively rare in vans. There lots of bad mechanics, and a few good ones. Part of the reason the 6.0 got such a bad rep.
I have 4 6.0 powerstrokes and 1 7.3 at the moment.
