I am not happy about it, but do rest easy knowing that my 2002 7.3l 4x4 will last many more miles. Hopefully by the time I am ready to replace it the kids will be grown and gone and I can move back to a SD CC 4x4 with a Diesel. It is the best rig made for what it does. Most tow or haul lots of people and gear in them. Not many soccer mom's driving them here, they stick to the Suburbans and H2's......
Now if something were to happen to mine I would be sad!

I could be wrong but most of the last build dates for a model year is in July.
