Gotta love you some 400,000 MILES. That is awesome.
Mine probably will not hit 400K in my lifetime. We will see.

What? You have over a half tank of fuel?

Oh, you mean the mileage thing? Is that the best you can do on a 2000? I've got more than that on my 02.

Welcome to the 400 club. It's kind of strange how when you cross 250k you start to think of the truck as a high mileage vehicle, but when you cross 400k, you don't even think about the miles anymore. It's just another number on the odometer for the old 7.3

Gimme time Chris... ive only had her for 4 1/2 months! Spent more time wrenching than driving... but now thats all just about buttoned up... and i feel like ive given motorbug due diligence in making sure everything is right as non acid rain. I wanna see that cool mil.

And i just want to reiterate... if it were not for you guys... Motorbug would be a slug on the way to a rattled grave. Thank you guys for allowing me access to your brainy parts.

Congrats to everyone here. Its not only the ole reliable 7.3 but the biggest role on longivity is the hours and money spent on maintence or preferable upgrades, if applied. NICE..
