Got myself a first-gen V10… who else loves these engines?
How can I learn more about this V10? I’m not from the US.
Haha, what do you want to know?
Just the engine name, and I’ll look it up on Wikipedia!
Sure! It’s the 6.8L Triton V10, similar to the 5.4 Triton V8 but with two extra cylinders and no cam phasers. This one’s the 3-valve version.

Thanks! Three-valve engines are rare where I’m from. We mostly had V6s and some diesels back then. Congrats on the truck!

Replaced a 2-valve in my ‘00 F250 a couple of years back. It was $4,000 from a dealer then, and I think it’s gone up a bit now. Love this thing.

Had 402k miles on my ‘94. Never left me stranded, but rust got the best of it.

Yup, 8 mpg… gotta love it.

Always 8 mpg, even downhill!

Love my ‘03 Excursion with the 2V V10. yes the fuel economy sucks and i’m going to dread the gas prices when driving to california to visit family next month but i’ve been fixing it up and it used to be my parents with only 113K miles on the clock.

I was hunting for a 3-valve V10, but they’re overpriced now. Your truck looks amazing, especially the two-tone. Almost bought a Harley truck, but they wanted 40k. Ended up with a ‘17 King Ranch diesel for 52k.

I’ve got an ‘01 E-350 with the V10 and only 29,500 miles. Love this engine.

Remember seeing 6 mpg on the display of my ‘08 F350.

Had a 6.8 before I switched to my 7.3. Great trucks if you don’t mind the fuel cost.
