I would steer a way from a new diesel unless your driving a lot of miles each year. The up front cost and the on going maintenance is a killer on the newer diesels. The Ford 6.7 is a better motor than the 6.4 and much better than the boat anchor 6.0 diesel.
A friend has 6 Ford F250s with the 6,4 in them. He is spending money all of the time on EGR issues and particulant filter problems. I have tried to get him to delete the EGR and particulant filter but he does not want to spend the money to do so. Even though he is spending that on EGR repairs.
Just a word of caution: Ford has not had the best luck with their gas motors either. The 5.4 is notorious for throwing spark plugs out of the head or stripping the threads in the head removing/replacing the spark plugs. Then several of the smaller motors had timing chain issues.
I like the cab on the Ford trucks but would be scared to death of their motors.
