Re: Extended Warranties?
Most original factory warranties cover your powertrain through 50,000 to 60,000 miles. Some, like Dodge cover 100,000 miles. Extended warranty could "BUY" you up to 75K to 100K miles. Cost at an average of $1200 to $1500 or more, depending on your negotiating skills at purchase time. Risk ...

Re: F350 Brake Controller Settings
I have an 08' F250 towing a 3150 also. I set my controller at 5.5. When testing, I feel the trailer brake just before I feel the truck. This is just a ballpark figure. You may need a bit higher or lower depending on the electronic response you are getting.

Trading F250 for GMC or Chevy ??
I am contemplating possibly trading off my 2008 F250 6.4L for a new GMC or Chevy 3500 hauler. I am a Ford guy and the truck is solid.
