Who has the most hours?
Who has the most hours?
So there have been a pile of thread regarding high mileage trucks.
Now I'm currious to see some engine hours posted!
A co-worker just purchased a new to him 2007 3500 SRW and mentioned that a friend had bought a CTD recently that had only about 40,000 miles on it but later found out that it shows 5,000 engine hours!

Apparently it had a welding rig on it previously and obviously spent a lot of time idling.
I'll start, my 2006 at 130,000 miles is just about to break 3,000 hours.

114,000 miles and 4100 hours, on the dmax though. Its a ranch truck so its a little higher. Ill get a real impressive number off the feed truck thursday, its prob close to that on hours and only has 20k miles.
This won't count, but my 89 when I sold it back in 2000 had 398,000 Km and 8250 hours. The tach had an hour meter in it and I found I was changing oil every 125 hours approx. The new ride, only has 19,800 Km on it.<300 hours
I kept track of hours in my oil change log for my last truck which was a 2000
3500. From 91,000 miles to 199,933 it totaled 2932 hours. Using that info the previous 91,000 miles would equal 2459 hrs.
Total hours for 199,933 miles would be 5391 hours. I averaged about 37 miles per hour of driving. So it will be differant for someone who stays on the road or for a hot shot truck, I guess.

We get those around here, they come down from the arctic circle oil companies and have low miles- 25K but the hours are around 3000. They just let 'em idle so they don't freeze. My GMC went off at 62000 miles and 1607 hrs, according to my records. Lotsa highway miles on that one.
