?????

I have to wonder why the truck only had 34000 miles in the first 2 years then 400,000+ miles the next 2. Inquiring minds want to know. ...did I miss something?

Be well!

Didn't see where it said that, but 2 words for ya "hotshot rig" or some elderly couples truck to pull their trailer around the states...

It's missing the Powerstroke badge on the passanger side, holes look like they have been filled. Most likely been in a fender bender!

The door badges don't have locator holes--they're stuck on with tape only.

I understood that inference from the Carfax report dates...did I read them wrong?


my trucks have the holes...I normally remove all the iron decals from my vehicles...just makes for easier cleaning and polishing...but mine were gonna have the holes exposed ifn I had done that.

the door badges are stuck on w/ glue...ive removed mine.
that back seats is not stock...my arm rest is different (bigger)...

is that over head console stock ? (i dont have the sun roof)
but mine isnt covered in head liner material and thats the FIRST time
ive EVER seen the program-able remote in that location...theyre
usually in the sun visor.

from the wrinkles in the headliner it looks like someones done some
custom work on that overhead console to me.

get the VIN number, and take it to a dealer...or web forum &
ask someone to run and OASIS report...thatll give you a good
idea about how it was maintained (if it was maintained at a dealer...
which isnt necessarily a GOOD thing) and how many recalls or
warrenty repairs were performed on this truck.

at either rate...you dont get 500k miles on a truck (in 5 model years)
if its in the SHOP (a lot)

I'm not trying to sell it...

I just wanted to make more people aware that there IS at least one high mileage 6.0 out there!

There's a few things that look fishy on it, but if you think about it being 1/2 a million miles you kinda think that it is normal LOL.

typical carfax...state inspections is 'bout all i can
ever get outta 'em too.

just to prove i can do math (using a calculator

DAMM 225k miles per year in the last TWO years ! almost 19k miles
a MONTH, 4750miles per week or 600 per day...i wonder if it was
ever shut OFF !?!

Id love to hear from some REAL OTR truckers (BAMA ?)
whats the largest single year miles any of your trucks have
seen ?
