6 Shaker

I'd give the truck a while to prove that this was just an isolated incident before deeming it undependable. It's nice to see that the dealer seems to have done a good job in fixing all of the collateral damage from the turbo.

I agree with 6_Shaker -- Let the dust settle. Time will tell whether the truck will become dependable. This might become a faint memory and if you otherwise like the truck, you might focus less on this problem and more on what you like about it.

BAD ANALOGY MOMENT:

Kinda reminds me of rambunctious puppies. The most frustrating and hard-headed pups sometimes turn out to be the best pooches. Bad / goofy analogy, I know. But the meaning is there.

Maybe this pup will become a great pooch... ???

As crazy as this sounds, I would rather have a failure right out of the gate with a truck than to have it fail later. Early failure means the part was defective when built. It's been replaced and from here on out the truck may be great. If you continue to have failures, then that's when you need to consider getting rid of the truck. Anthony

Just wanted thank every body for the positive feed back.

Blowing up a turbo isn't such a big deal. As long as nothing got into the engine, it will still last forever.
