We have a pair of Power Strokes...'03 F-550 dumps for snowplowing in the winter and hauling dirt/gravel in summer..Both have had numerous turbos , both have driveability problems with surging and just flat acceleration , mostly cold..Balljoints at 40,000 miles..[ They squeaked when turning the wheels ]..And whats the deal with blowing off the turbo tube and hoses ?? Why are the tube and hoses from the aftercooler to engine loaded with oil on both trucks...I don't know what they're thinking when they engineer these trucks..I've got to the point where I'm wiring and ty-raping the hoses and tube in place so it won't blow off as often..It wasn't that many years ago , that if you bought a new truck , you could run it 40 or 50,000 miles with just oil changes..Not any more.. These Fords have been back to several dealers over the past 4 years with no chance of making us happy with them..State Bid is a wonderfull thing..We'll probably have to settle for the same thing on the next purchases
