Similarly equipped V10's and 5.4's are going for $3K more at least, for the same miles.

Can't find any 7.3's around here ... their owners won't part with them

I'd kill for an 03 for that kinda $$$. They are nowhere near that cheap here. Hell no used cars are...

Yeah 6.0s are dirt cheap here too. Except at dealers.. but anywhere else they are at least 2k below most trucks, and 7.3s are at least 3k more than they should be

really? I've spent 5 yrs looking for a decently price PSD. I still overpaid for this one, but at least I've got one now.

I would have gladly bought a "problem" 6.0 and then spent a little money to delete the problems. oh well, snooze ya lose


btw, thanks
