    Maxxforce engine was quite possibly the worst engine ever made. There is a reason they can't get them off dealer lots. The newer model they put out, I don't know if it is reliable or not. But if it were my money I would not even consider owning one of those engines.

    Im not a driver but ive never heard anything good about that engine. you can go on youtube and check out j. cannel. He use to do drive away. so you will have to go back aways to find the videos. I know of 2 where they just shut off while driving at 50 mph. he stated that if he was a new driver and didn't have the experience he has, it could have been trouble. I would say run...
