New F 150 Diesels

[jstone]

Does anyone know when the 2018 f150 diesels come out? Is anyone here picking one up?

With all the new emmision control garbage  im not really sure the new diesels are worth the hefty sum they want for them. Even the Cummins that I love.

Had a friends new  Cummins throw a code for the Def Fluid sensor.  Gave them 250 miles or so to take to the dealer before it went into limp mode. Thing was almost new. And they were getting ready to go on a trip.

 I own a couple Ford Diesels, one has 500k+ original miles that I drive almost daily....I feel pretty good about my purchases.

I'm on my first Ford diesel, 6.4 and couldn't be happier. Went from an '04 Ford F150 to a 2011 Chevy 2500 DuraMax and didn't have the DM for even a year and went to a '09 Ford F350 PS and I don't plan on changing. Too many electrical and DEF problems with the Chevy. To each his own I guess.

If you have to buy a Dodge to feel better about yourself, you have more issues than even a Ford can fix.

They're seeing ~30mpg's on these F150's in the early stages. Our zone rep was here yesterday chattering about them a little.

You guys can talk all you want, but Fords and Dodges all break. They just have different problems. I have made lots and lots of mortgage payments based off of selling repairs and service work on both brands. I deal with lots of construction companies and city municipalities. Several of them are going away from diesels all together due to the fact that the DEF/regen/DPF stuff is not conducive to the work they need the trucks to do. Long idle times and they never get out on the road and get driven don't work well in these environments.

 I do know you're joking, and that is one of the few I do not own.

@jackelope
in all seriousness..  What do you drive??  All said and done with your knowledge and work you do, I'm curious as to what is your reliable daily driver and hunting rigs are.

We own a 14 Explorer that my wife drives and I (gulp) traded my 235k miles 2002 Chevy Silverado in that I owned for 11+years to buy the Exploder. I took her 2006 Grand Cherokee which is totally going against the norm at 165k hard, extremely trouble free miles. It's been all over this state and a few others and has seen lots of dirt roads. It's hammered now as I use it for a lot of the stuff I used to use my truck for. Have you ever seen what a bale of hay will do to the inside of an SUV?
I would like to buy another truck soon. Sort of torn as to what I want, but I can say with 100% confidence that the only thing I will worry about when buying it will be comfort. It will either be a Ford, Chevy or Dodge. More than likely won't be a dodge because I don't like the way they look. Leaning hard toward an F-150 with the 5.0 V8 but don't think the ecoboost would be bad either. I've even been looking at some of the 2.7 ecoboosts. I would have no issues owning another Chevy truck. Mine was great.
