377k on my 7.3, all original, including the IP. Injectors done 3 times tho.

6.9 ain't even worth saying, 150k, even though it's 150k of towing miles.

192K When I bought it a year ago from the 2nd owner. 203K now and no signs of slowing down besides a couple of oil leaks.

My old 86 f250 had somewhere between 1,200,000 and 1,500,000. The original owner lost track after that. It had had a couple of motors, quite a few transmissions and several sets of springs. I finally sold it when the transmission went out on me the second time. The body was wasted from rust and cows. The guy I sold it to is still driving it.

Always used plain ATF. But been using Howes Diesel Conditioner for the past 5 years.


I wouldn't recommend letting an IP go this far anyways, it's lacking huge power!

Mine is unknown. It is in the mid 90,000's on the odo but who knows if it's 190,000 or 290,000 or higher?
When I got the truck it was around 78,000 on the odo and the guy swore that was correct! :rotflmao:rotflmao:rotflmao

158k, typical ZF reverse failure, DMF obliterated itself, IP just said I Quit, Injectors leak horribly, 6 of 8 GP's are burnt out, But no matter what I do all I have to do is hit the key and it comes right back to life, as long as it isn't below 30* ;Really

My grandpas 83 which we drove most of my life, had roughly 680,000 on it when we rolled it. Had most of the original GP's in it too and only had the head gaskets replaced once.
3 of our other IDI's have over 400K on them, my moms crew cab is almost there too at 378,000.

My 88 had 170,000 when I bought it. 312,000 when I sold it. I never even replaced so much as a glow plug. Original IP,clutch,injectors { far as I know }. Did change alternator and vacuum pump. Countless oil changes. I was the third owner. A guy bought it from me for the engine/trans. He didn't believe it had 312,000 miles. I compare every truck since to that truck and always disappointed.
