My 97 3500 CTD has 1,376,459 miles, but needs an overhaul. Head and oil pan never off. Uses a quart of oil a day on 800 miles while grossing 26k @ 65 mph. Hauled cars for 7 years, hay for 3 years, and camper for 1 year. Our 1989 3500 CTD has 1,100,000, has a little blow by and a shelled ring gear Our 94 3500 CTD has 960,000 and is still driven daily. I'll never have anything else until 12v's are no more!!

Little over 170k miles, every moving part on the truck has been changed so its a new truck!
PS jbone you need to get some pictures of the odo(s). Those are impressive numbers.

In those miles what engine related parts have you changed out? Injection pumps, lift pumps?
