Hope to buy 2006 Dodge Cummins
Hi, I'm a new member here. Live in NW Washington State. Read a bunch here on the site, great info! So, here's a question for those smarter than me; I am looking at a 2006 Dodge Cummins with 269000 on the engine and original tranny. The guy selling used to haul light trailers (5th wheel) down to Eugene, OR. 95% of the miles are highway. He's taken meticulous care of the rig. Any idea how many miles one can get out of a factory rig? Guess what I'm asking is what might I expect to replace at this mileage? Any input would be much appreciated. Thanks all!
Glad I joined!

Auto or stick? But if everything has been kept up with I would say another 100k as long as you keep up on it, if its an auto and never been rebuilt I would question in. If a manual go on how it feels.

Ya same things as everyone else is saying, I have an 05 and I live down in Arlington. I would say that number is not a big deal for the motor other then the injectors if they are stock and the filtration system is stock I would start to ask questions on that too. My truck is a manual so I cant really say anything about the autos but I know lots of buddies that have had to rebuild them. Being a road pounder I would look into the front end a lot. I just now had to rebuild my front end at 126k and it costs quite a few bucks to do it right. I kinda screwed up and took the word of the seller on mine a little too much and kinda got screwed on a few things but the truck is healthy now thank god.
