I am the Commercial Account Manager at a large Ford dealership and agree that the 6.0 Powerstroke is a great tow motor. I delivered one to an account last week and discovered that when you floor it at 40 MPH it will push you back into the seat! The Torqshift 5 speed automatic used this year ia outstanding! The 6.0 when installed in an E-series van is detuned at the request of the ambulance companies as they didn't want the drivers smokin' the tires!

The 6.0 is a great improvment over the 7.3, the 4 valve heads and variable vane turbo work very well.

And I do have several in stock! (self serving, shameless commercial promotion [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img])
