Looking for 94-97

I am looking for a 94-97 powerstroke. I am having a hard time finding one with less than 125,000 miles. Anyone have any advice.

Keep looking, they are out there, just need to have patience. Your best bet would be something like autotrader online. Widen the search. Take a road trip to get it.
Good luck, these trucks are getting harder and harder to find.

one other thing.... miles on a psd is like "dog years" in reverse.... if you have a gasser with 125k on it, you have a gasser with 125k, if you have a psd with 125k, it's like having a gasser with 25k on it...!

Yeah, really - a 94-97 PSD with 125K miles on it is just getting started! These are work-and-play-hard trucks, I'd be embarassed if I owned one with fewer miles than that by now! (And I'm nearly embarassed... our '97 has about 129K on it, but it's had an easier life since we added the '03 to the stable...)

...but your embarassment will be worth it when Motown Fire offers you BIG BUCKS for your truck! He ain't going to find many with miles that low! (If he lowers his expectations to include trucks with 129K miles, we might sell ours. We keep going back and forth on that decision...we own too many vehicles, and the '03 gets most of the use at this point.)

Haha well unless someone makes me a crazy offer... i think she's sticking around here.... took me over a year and a half to find this truck... bought it from the original owner, and it was never towed or plowed with and used for light travel... unless i get an offer north of 20G... then i might conciter...

Hey thanks Craze. Seems like most of the trucks like I am looking for are not in Texas. They all seem to be up North.
