Why did Ford dump the 6.4?
Why'd they dump it?

It also does not meet 2010 emissions standards, as is.

The same reason they dumped the 7.3, the 6.0, the 6.4 - upcoming emissions regulations.
The new 6.7 will use EGR technology combined with urea injection to reduce emissions, along with other technology enhancements.

In 5 years they'll dump the 6.7 and go with a 7.0....
......then it starts all over again with a 6.2 or 5.7...
What would be sweet is a V10 diesel or a V12 diesel for a super duty.....

Ford and Navistar agreeded to dump each other. Mostly Ford wanted away from Navistar due to warranty issues from the 6.0. The 6.7 also must meet 2010 emmission standards which are much tougher so designed a ground up new engine.

Ok, just a little paranoid. I found it really strange that they finally got a way from the 6.0's and are only going to use the new motor for 2 years. That's a big cost to build a new engine and replace all the tooling,wiring .... This is my first new truck ever and I'm pretty happy with it. Buddy's have a all different breeds and I'm having the least amount of problems of very body. I love the power and carry capacity and I'm even ok with the mileage for now but it is going to get the full Spartan treatment soon.

its ridiculous..they keep putting tighter emission restrictions on these trucks that cause the mileage to decrease significantly so we are burning more fuel so arent they just pissin in the wind>?
