Ok I got some bad news the other day a buddy told me that he thinks my truck has over 400,000 miles on it. whats the most miles anyone has heard of on a first gen. From the body id say its had it pretty rough so i dont know what i should do. i just put 3 grand in to different areas of the truck.

 

theres a guy that got 1million out of his.

If your rig is running good, 400k is not anything to be concerned with. I talked to a guy a few weeks ago who just bought a 6.0 powerstroke. The 1st gen that he traded-in on the Ford had over 600k ...... most of those miles he was pulling heavy loads. He got rid of it beacuse it was cosmetically challenged.

 

If this were not cummins then yes I would be concerned. Unless you have had some problems with the engine then more than likely it will outlast the rest of the truck. Just feed it clean fuel, clean air and change the oil on a regular basis.

 

400K miles? why you haven't even broke her in yet! my next door neighbor has 1,293,000+ on his 92! I'd say you have a teenager! hehehehehe!

 

I agree with cdodgeguy.its barely broke in!!!!!!!

 

There's a post in one of these threads from the other night, a member posted he has over 1.6 million.

Sorry I can't find the post.

 

I found the post. It was by mopar2ya and he has over 1.16million miles.

And actually if it's the same truck posted in his gallery, It's doing very well. Nice looking truck.

 

I guess then that I have and NEWBORN. I only have 240,000kms which is only 150,000 miles on my '93

 

Pastor Bob reassured me a long time a go..... when I too was wondering whether to keep investing. He has seen very high mileage CTD's that still had the cross-hatching in the cylinders, whne pulling heads off for various reasons.
