HI FOLKS, I AM NEW TO DIESELS, I PURCHASED ONE TO PULL A FIFTH WHEEL ABOUT 3 WEEKS AGO. (NOV. 2012) I FOUND A 2001 FORD SUPER DUTY WITH 5,575 MILES ON THE CLOCK. I WAS VERY SUPRISED TO SEE SUCH A TRUCK, VIRTUALLY UNUSED. SEEING AS IT IS 12 YEARS OLD, WHAT SHOULD I LOOK FOR MAINTAINENCE WISE. I GOT RECORDS OF WHAT HAS PREVIOUSLY DONE, WHICH WAS NOT MUCH.THIS TRUCK HAS BEEN STORED INSIDE, HAS NO DRYROT ON ORIGINAL TIRES, (I TOOK TO TIRE STORE, THEY PUT 70 POUNDS IN ALL 4.) STILL HAS ORIGINAL BATTERIES THAT SPIN ENGINE WITH NO PROBLEM.
I WOULD LIKE TO DO ANY PREVENTIVE WORK NECESSARY, I JUST DON'T SEE ANY. LARIAT LWB 2 WHEEL DRIVE. RECORDS SHOW OIL BEEN CHANGED TWICE.
