D-Max life expectancy????
 

Looking into used trucks... hopefully a D-Max or maybe a Cummins

anywho... my price range is around 20k... probably a little less i have found a couple of 03s and 04s but the mileage is around 120k... i'm used to gassers and that seems high... but its not a gasser

i just trying to wrap my brain around spending that much for a truck with that many miles. basically i'm wondering how long i can expect the truck to last. i've heard around 400k on the cummins, but i would prefer a gm so im looking for a milage guess-tamate.

thanks

depends on how its driven but 120k is not very high. probably get another 150K out of it before parts start wearing out

I recently purchased a 2002 2500 ext cab 4x4 6spd manual and it has 278K logged on its clock! It starts and runs but has a miss issue above idle.

start a thread about it in the LB7 section

mine is sitting at 148k, replacing head gaskets right now cause i like to push things to the max and the 01 head gasket wasnt the best one out there :td:

250,000miles is the supposed overhaul interval for these engines.

Depends on your maintenance. If you aren't lazy on changing fluid intervals and go the x-tra protection step with bypass filtration you will get a few 100k miles for free.

Commercial trucks fleet operators know the secrets to get those additional miles.

Thats just gettin broke in for a Cummins. If you want longevity, go with the Cummins

:nope:
