My 2000 Ford 7.3 flat bed dump with the 6 speed manual transmission. Is at 220,000 miles and running well. Keeping the truck under 2000rpm I can get 18mpg.
Did the ball joints 3 times, water pump at 120k,slave cylinder at 200k and the under the valve cover connectors have been cleaned twice. A OBDII code reader for this truck is well worth the investment.Tells you which connector is having an issue etc.
I tow a skid steer weighing in at 11k + trailer, car trailer, dump trailer and portable mill all over the place. Carry a ton of wood literally twice a week+. I'm not sure what more I'd expect to get from a 1 ton work truck. Plowed with it for a few years early on. Looking to put a plow on this winter. I might do the wheel bearings next break I get as well as save some dollars for rebuilt injectors at 250k or 300k. I'll be replacing the rear springs and shocks soon.
I see similar trucks listed for $5-15k within a hundred miles. If I find one at 120k with fresh ball joints and no oil pan issues I might buy it. I did not enjoy doing the ball joints.
