What is it worth?
Gentlemen,
I am planning to sell my 7.3 power stroke F-250 king cab and was wondering what you guys think the engine is worth if someone was just buying it for that. I want to move this thing, but don't want to give away an engine that as I understand it, is the best engine around. It has 170K on it and is in good condition overall....needs a few glow plugs, a new oil pan, but other than that, it is in great condition. I originally was going to ask 7k for the truck (that is with a Western snowplow), but I don't know if that would be too much? I want to move it, but not give it away. Any thoughts?
thanks,
Patrick

Yes it should be turbo'd
And by King Cab do you mean it has 4 full doors?
Typically those are known as Crew Cab.
I just ask because sometimes people call the Extended Cab (2 full doors with a half door that has rear padded bench seat) a King Cab.
Depending on the condition I would say 5 or 6k is typical. 7k isnt outrageous by any means, but it depends on what has been done to it and what condition it is in.

By king cab I mean extended cab. The truck is in ok shape...needs some repairs, but for the most part for a northern truck it is in great shape. Plus with the western snow plow it really is a work horse if it needs to be.
As far as any mods, there are none. The only thing I did was add a K&N air filter (not the full system). Other than that, it is stock.
Anyway, sounds like if I ask 6K or so I should be safe....thanks for the input.

That is why I asked what the engine value would be. If someone wanted the truck for the engine, then they would be pulling it anyhow. I have heard a wide variety of things as it pertains to that repair. Currently it is slow leak and could possibly have a patch put on it.

True didnt think about the oil pan... thats 2k + for any shop to do it.
I had one shop around here that did it for 1k... but they owed me for some work I did for em a while back. lol
Not sure if just the motor. if its all working and everything included I think Ive seen em go for 900 or so.
You would probably get more out of it as a whole running truck than parting it...
A truck has to be pretty beat up to not be worth more whole than in parts.
