V10 triton a good engine?

I seen a 99 ford f250 for sale. It has a v10 triton 6.8l i believe. Is it a good motor do they last if well maintained? And if they are not good motors what are common problems they have?

Yes the v10 motors are solid motors.

The only thing I've heard from people that own them is how horrible the gas mileage is.

The most common "problem" is they get Really LOUSY fuel mileage. WHY do you "need" a 3/4 ton pickup with a 10-cylinder engine anyway? If you just want transportation, buy a Toyota or a Honda.

You must have lots of cash for gas - it will need to stop at every gas station |
