just wanted to put it out there today was a tribute to real enginering just rolled over 400k in my 1990 f350 7.3 with no major issuse....ever. it was a good day any one else in the 400k or higher?

 

pics or it didn't happen!!!!

 

haha i can put pics up butt it wont help to much odomiter stops at 99k and rolls this was the 4th revolution

 

Thats pretty impressive my 3 fords have 113,000,246,000,318,000.

 

I'm at 173,000 but workin on 400,0. Hoping I'm as lucky as you.

 

My 97 had 308,xxx and my 96 has 141,xxx and my wifes rav4 4 has 213,xxx on it and all no major repairs....

 

i'm working on 200k the only problem i had was a dryrotted trans cooler line witch leaked my fluid out and burned the tranny up and now this oil pan gasket

 

I put 20k hard miles on my truck this year. Wish it'd die, i wanna swap it! hehe
My old truck had around 185K on it when i got rid of it i believe, 1998 5.4.

 

I wish I had the luck you all do. I haven't had many vehicles last past 100K without issues. Then again, I rarely keep on more than a few years. (this is why). These trucks seem to be pretty stout though.

 

A buddy of mine bought a '02 superduty extended cab long bed, with 400K. Its clean too, except for the occasional chip and paint flaking, the interior is spotless. What is the highest milage 7.3 anyone know the breaking point??

 

This guy is a total idiot, but...

There is a friend of mine that owns a trailer manufacturing company, and he has a 7.3 with over 500k on it. The truck is used for shipping trailers. The only problem with it was a water separator. And that is 500k WORKING miles.

 

Thats awesome! At least we know they can go way over 500K.

 

I get your point saluting ford. Which ford builds good, reliable trucks. BUT the 7.3 is actually navistar built. 7.3 was a good one(thats why that motor was used forever) But i feel like for the most part navistar/international builds crap thats why ford is building there own diesel now
Just trying to make sure everyone knows. If your giving a tribute to international, they don't deserve it honestly. They caused ford alot of problems with hte 6.0 I would love to have a 1990 350 myself tho. That would be pretty sweet

 

i did know that thank you for clearing that up beacuse it is a very good point yes i am here to salute ford NOT international as you said the 6.0 was trash im glad ford was able to move on from that and make the high quality trucks they do s thanks for the clear up i love that truck and for everyone i know the 7.3 is an excelent motor however im proud to say i drive a ford not an international lol
