I am looking at this truck I am familliar with the 7.3 I have a 02 psd. Now my dad wants one it is a 97 with 275000 miles truck runs great brand new clutch torque converter brakes and rotors I have heard of theese trucks going a whole lot of miles what do you guys think. 4x4 long box extended cab 5 speed 10000$ its well below blue book for its condition

 

If it starts easy and doesn't smoke you probably don't need to worry about the milage. 10 grand seems high for a 10 year old truck with those miles though.....unless it's really cherry.

 

I was thinking the same thing. Seems a little on the high side to me.

 

she fires right up hot or cold with no smoke. Probably starts better than my 02 with 80000 miles. Truck is in mint condition I know the guy that has nowned it since 100000 miles traded it in on a 1999 with 120000 on it said he was nervous about the high miles they gave him 8500 on the trade in

 

When I got my 97 it had 76k and I gave 13 for her that was over 2 years ago.

 

3 years ago I paid $18,000 canadian with 90k miles. Specs are in my profile, my truck now after looking at the local market would probably go for 15,000 canadian with 130k miles

 

well he did it and im jealous of the 5 speed maybe he will trade me

 

Im lookin at a 95 with about the same milage. 5 speed ext cab 4x4 little beat up needs a paint job that about it but i can get it for 6000 Im gunna drive it and lookit over some more and if it all checks out im gunna get it. Glad to here someone else is not affriad of buying a truck with that many miles on it too

 

a gasser never but a PSD for sure, well not a 6.0 just a 7.3 lol

 

lol ya thats what i herd. what about drivetrain problems? My 93 f150 front end is about wore out at only 137000

 

well everything that moves will wear out, but remember that these trucks are super dutys so things seem to be a little beefer

 

Bought our 96 with 385K on it and our 97 with 285K. They are both wonderful!!!!They are beasts and they seem like there is a lot of life left in them. Fun to drive!!!

 

thats true HD should make it all last longer. I just need to find some time to drive it. can't wait to let the black smoke roll

 

My neighbor has a 97 Auto 2WD 4DR LB Dually with 103K, clean as a whistle, I mean clean and I'll bet he would sell it for somewhere between 8,000-10,000. Silver and white, I think gray interior. Aluminum Alcoa wheels. They bought it with 10K on it in 98 and they only used it for their horse trailer. He took out the 5th wheel and put it in the new truck but it's a nice clean hole for a new hide-away 5th wheel. He hates the prospect of having to sell it because he's kind of shy so he'd probably take the first offer he gets. It is really nice.

 

Where is he I would take it in a min.
