I haven't heard alot of good or bad about the new engines but a buddy of mine has a new F350 and it has sequential turbos...that is to say one turbo feeding another....I know CAT is using this design on their engines now for emission compliance, supposidly with good results, but we all know that the OEM's never claim to have any problems and the "good" only lasts so long. With the type of usage a pickup gets, and I could be wrong here, but I see really expensive problems before too long with two turbos instead of just one. Think about it, when one turbo goes the pieces floating around in the intake are almost certainly going to take the other or, barring that scenario, the problem that took out the one (no spool/cool down time when shutting of the engine, low oil pressure, etc) is probably going to take both.
Personally I'd keep the older, less technologically advanced trucks as they'll probably last alot longer than the newer ones. In the end I think you'll be better off but that's just my opinion.
