Ford did not build those. Remember the lawsuit of International by Ford ? The 6.0 is garbage but it was tested. The 6.0 has not been for sale for many years. Remember the 4l60e and 700r4 transmissions that died at 90,000 miles or the 6.2 and 6.5 diesels that cracked heads by the pallet load? Or how about the 5.3's that wipe out cams and are still being sold. I can work on Dodge next if you want.
Doesn’t matter who built them
Ford used em and they were totally unreliable
And could never have been tested
If the failure rate in testing was as high as the real world use, who would use it in production ?
Either that or they failed frequently in the testing and Ford didn’t care.
Blaming it on poor maintenance seems like a lame excuse for incompetence
You’d think after 100 YEARS of building automobiles that ford and every other manufacturer would have figured out how to build an engine and transmission and wheel bearings that would last the life of the vehicle .
