I guess I was not clear. I am looking for diesels with over 300k. But your grandad got lucky with that gasser. Good buy on his part.

Our 95 dually has around 365+ at last oil change. No probs other than trani and an occasional steering collum meltdown.

Oh yeah, front end replaced two years ago, because the plow wore it out...

My grandpa's 02 CTD just rolled 350,000. He has put 2 VP's on it and LOTS of tires. He pulls cattle trailers all over Michigan and Indiana.

Dad's '86 F-250 6.9L still chuggin' with 480k, to my knowledge the heads have never been off, no major repairs, just basic maintenance. Beast has been pullin' boats, 5th wheels and car trailers. Even starting in 3rd hooked up to a 28' camper it won't stall
