I looked up the injectors on ebay, looks like about 80 bucks a hole for the 6.0. Not too bad. I know what you mean about high maintenance costs. I was just wondering if this truck is practical or not. It uses about half the oil that the 7.3 did (atleast that is what the specs on Internation's website said).

I have also heard some ugly stories for gas milage of the new 3 valve 5.4, so I figured a diesel that can get 20 on the highway would be a pretty good truck, esp buying used where you don't pay the upfront sticker cost. Thanks for the advice on the truck. I am thinking that a lot of people are just reading a few of the horror stories and then passing them on over and over and eventually you have hundreds of horror stories. Thanks for the help. I just like the thought of a diesel motor in a medium duty truck, esp it I end up getting a gooseneck to haul tractors around occasionally. Thanks for the help Hurst
