Congratulation on the new V10 - I am jealous.
I had special ordered a 2006 F250 V10 six speed manual and loved it...16 mpg hiqway and 10-11 towing my light 5th wheel. My left hip started acting up and the doctor said sell the truck or get a hip replacement...
I could not find another V10 automatic so I bought a Chevy 6.0 v8 automatic....biggest disappointment of my life...want to trade??? HA
You will get better mpg than my crappy v8 and will tow almost like a diesel...I had a cummins prior to the v10, and I preferred the v10....good luck and enjoy the ride!!

Sorry to hear that. I am also in the market looking for a new TV, are you willing to share with us on why the Chevy 6.0 v8 is such a disappointment? Thanks!

Bryan, I may look at the banks exhaust system. Do you remember how much it cost?

I think I paid $1700 for the full Powerpack which uncludes long headrs. The newer V10s really don't need headers, just a cat back system, you you'd probably be at less than half that for your truck.
I do not recomend Banks electronics for the V10. The Diablo predator can do more and is easier to install (and cheaper) than the Banks stuff fot the V10.
