You’ll love it. Used ones are doing over list at the sale. We’re one of the only dealers not marking them up. We can’t get enough new ones and refuse to gouge our customers/owners by selling them for over what we feel is a fair price. Our’s is a family owned dealership and we really try to do what’s right. That new engine is one helluva unit. So far, zero complaints and virtually no warranty issues on the ones we’ve sold. By the way, we have orders in our order bank that are over six months old…you did well.

Bill... won't lie - I blurted out "WOW!" when I saw the pics but after your explanation, it seems like a logical way to handle a big repair without risking rig body damage, tech injury or other inefficiencies/wastes.

a lot of problems with the cam phasers on the late model F150s, have to tear the whole front end of the engine apart, major surgery. Ford pulls the cabs off to ease getting to the engine

Spoke too soon, mine just failed at 12,000 miles. On a road trip to Palm Springs, so truck stays in Vallejo while I complete the trip in a minivan.
