How Many Is Too Many?

im looking into getting a Dodge 3500 4x4 (maybe 2wd) dually...
how many miles is to much? 1,000,000 and it *might* need to be freshened up but it all boils down to the life it has lived. only towing at highway speeds its whole life is better than farm truck its whole life
at what mileage does things start do go out and break? on a 24v it's debatable on the injection pump as it depends on the fuel pressure it's seen it's whole life. some last 200K some last 30K it just depends on what life it has lived. 12v look that the KDP has been fixed. 4x4 the track bars go bad and cause the death wobble. 2wd balljoints are the weak link.
im looking for s 5spd but will consider an auto only if its been rebuilt and have papers to
prove it.
smart move. the 5 or 6 speed trucks have a higher HP rating than autos. if you can get an auto truck cheap enough plan on 2K-5K on rebuilding the tranny to last. price depends on what all you want to upgrade. 2K is good converter and valve body price range. 5K is built to the hilt range...
