Colorado B.S. Thread

I am all over the place with my diesel search!

 

I am indeed

 

I'm supposed to look at lower mileage 6.0 this weekend but the seller has been getting kind of flaky

 

Is this the final product @SilverGhost

God it looks like the off spring of the ghostbusters car..... when it got high on meth, drove through a JC Whitney catalog, and fucked a Tacoma at Home Depot

 

Don't' buy one unless it's had the head gaskets and oil cooler/egr upgraded.

The one I was supposed to look at had everything done within the last year with receipts according to the seller.

 

But what they didn't tell you is that they are Taco Bell receipts....

 

Even better

 

Truth be told I would also be ok with a gasser. The Ford v10 doesn't scare me. I like the Chevies with the 8.1L but it sucks they are automatic only.

 

Don't say that around these parts! Still up in the air with gas vs diesel. We will only really be towing when we use the camper. Other than that will just have the dirtbikes in the bed.

 

Haters gon be mad but you really only need a diesel if the truck is gonna live its life attached to a trailer. Gassers might be a few mpg worse but you can buy a lot of gas with the difference in price between the gas and diesel truck.




But the heart wants what the heart wants

 

The trucks to avoid are the 5.4L V8 Fords and the 6.0L Chevies. The Triton V8s are the ones that like to eject spark plugs and in my experience the Chevy 6.0L just doesn't have enough guts for towing.

Don't know much about Dodges

 

My heart wanted Taco's so I drove down to the food truck and got Taco's, now my heart is happy.

 

Now that you mentioned the 8.1 chevys if I can find a clean one for less than $10k I might just have to pull the trigger.

 

Cousins 6.0 was about thrilled at the 11k load as the tundra was. So it'll do it but definitely not what I'd buy with towing in mind.

 

It is crazy reading what the new 1500 trucks will tow.

 

Chevy 6.0L, right? My experience was the same with my uncle's CCLB 2500. Would be a good truck for stuff like landscaping but definitely not too much more haha
