Bought the truck used from an auction. previous owner had hauled trailers all over new england in snow/ice (salt corrosion) for 280k miles with jake brake and after-market overdrive. bad tps and fuel pump had led him to dump it. got some flakey overdrive issues when cold (showed up when a transmission shop removed the overdrive unit and cut the ground wire)... 125k miles later she's still "busting a hump," moves right along at 2200 rpms, 15 mpg. Not going to win any races, but every time I sit down to calculate the cost of replacing her, she makes dollars and sense. I'll keep her another year and see how she acts. I'd like to take the cummins out and drop it in another vehicle.
excellent truck

Bought used in 2000 with 40k, 120k miles now. Rarely tow. V10 gets worse mileage than a diesel but is a lot quieter. It runs fine, no engine or trans problems. Uses a teensy bit of coolant- not worth fixing. Replaced radiator and A/C clutch way back. I'm in northern California so the only rust is on top where the sun has burned off the paint (driving it around Death Valley in August a few years back probably didn't help). Put in LED headlight bulbs- massive improvement. Added cable-actuated selector for 4WD since the vacuum-actuated system is unreliable. Also added a backup camera and a home-made cupholder because the factory one is so absurdly bad. The truck is handy for when I need a truck. The rest of the time it sits out back under a lemon tree with the battery hooked to a trickle charger. Book value is almost nothing, so it's not worth selling. At this rate it will easily last another 20 years.

What a great truck with the 12 valve diesel. I did the adjustment with great results. I did sell this truck with over 380K miles still running strong and getting over 22mpg and 16 pulling trailer. Tranmission replaced at 180k. No problems with the motor at all. This truck was very easy to work on and very reliable. I wish I still had the truck.
