They reinvented the lifter to allow the engine to switch between 4 cylinder and 8 cylinder operation to increase the fuel economy a couple tenths of an MPG.
My 2015 with 103,000 on it had a lifter seize less than a week after the 5-year warranty ran out. Bent a valve. Fortunately, the head checked out, the cam checked out, so all they had to do was replace the lifter and the valve, and put it back together.

The dealer fixed it "old school" having a machine shop check out the head and cam, replacing only the bad components, for $2500.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
