My brother has a F350 with the 6.0. 275,000 miles. They use it to haul anything around the country.
3 EGR failures, 10K worth of injectors have gone bad. 1 alternator.

From what I understand from a friend that is a good diesel mechanic, is that the injectors heat up burning up the coil end. We talked about this extensively just yesterday. He has installed higher flow lift pumps and it seems to keep them cool and last longer.

I have talked to a few guys with 6.4, they have some minor issues all were taken care of by Ford, they like them. The cab does have to come off of those trucks for head gasket changes.

My 7.3 has not had any problem, but it only has 88k on it, you really can’t tell at that low of mileage.

Personally I think some needs to take the F450 chassis (good looking truck) put a 6.7L Cummins in it with the 6 speed Alison,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,That would be a killer combo.

my 2004 F250 6.0L towed my raceboats all over the country.

90k miles....no problems. I guess I was one of the lucky ones

On my brothers truck the injectors didn't start failing until they were over 100k, I think about 125K for the first one.

Hell just about anything can make it to 100k without problems, even the POS tracker we have, but these truck should last way longer.

i agree that just about anything should make it to 100k w/o problems. However, 03s and 04s, obviously had some problems right off the bat. so if you made it to 100k w/o issues, I think your doin' ok.

I have had 4 7.3 trucks, a 90 non turbo...pig, a 94 IDI Turbo, slow but extemely reliable...290K.....a 99 with 288K, just sold it, no issues also hot rodded it..(tuner/exh/trans work/all that..

Now have a 99 again but CC Dually with 361,000 miles!! drives like 50,000 mile truck... I love it!!

I would buy any 7.3 no matter what the mileage as long as it looks kept up....I flew to Texas because they are cheaper and I wanted 100% rust free...

Thats a 99? the badges are off the newer ones. 99's only had the psd badge on the front fender. Its a dually of min though nice

and the headlights look like 02-03....you can change padges and swap parts...

my 02 didnt have any badges and had 05 headlights...

Yes, 99, only the early 99 had the badge on front of fender, late 99 had them on door, mine is actaully a early, but someone changed them..I wanted a late 99-2000 but at 8900.00 I could not pass it up......could not touch rust free dually up north for under 15,000

The headlights are HID, very cool at night!

thats a nice truck for 8900.

Sorry I forgot his is a 07.
