What do you mean he lost miles? Like the odometer rolled back/forward without the truck moving? If it's rolling back I would HAVE to assume he's got a problem with the PSOM. It's programmed in a way to prevent that sort of thing... If it's rolling forward the problem could be elsewhere I suppose, but I'd still be suspicious of the PSOM...

Tell him to keep stalling it, get the miles down, then SELL! 
Skandocious is probably right (though I hope he doesn't notice I said that 
) that it's the PSOM. Never heard of anything like it on these trucks. My 83 Chevy I still have used to not roll up to the next mile each time, that's the closest I can come

Now I had a 76 impala that would open garage door for me. No kidding. But I used to be really out there then. Well out farther any way
Yep he lost exactly 5 miles on the last one . He was looking at it on restart.
Why keep stalling ? I sold him a cluster with 71000 miles on it . His has 118000 I think I asked him to chime in lets see.

This is RED LARIAT and what LOST IN NINETIES said is true. I do have '94 f-150 an the odometer does lose a few miles from time to time, I noticed before I stalled the truck before putting it in the garage, the reading was 110,099 miles and when I pulled it in I seen it now had 110,093 miles. So I lost six miles. I wasn't sure before, but I though I seen this before. I know now it does this. Is this a warning that something more serious could be on the way, such as adding or subtracting large sums of miles or anything else for that matter?
