There actually a thread about it, I forget the exact title though. Mine is unknown but my first ones speedo broke with a little over 300,000, I estimate it had another 60 to70.000 miles before I parked it.
The 93 has 261 on the clock, the 94 has 170 on the clock. I don't drive the 94 anymore, it does start and run and drive, it just has issues. Mostly from sitting, that is harder on them than anything else. I have a clutch in the future of the 93 and an oil leak out of the front seal. Still waiting for a response on that thread I started...LOL.
179000, 279000, who knows. I know I've replaced a lot of things in it. Water pump,starter,vacume pump, tie rods,blinker switch, tack sensor, rear wheel bearings, rear brakes, glow plugs. Just to name a few. My wife say's that pretty soon, I'll have the newest 88 around. I think I already have.
417000 on the truck. Motor is original and never been opened up. Just about everthing else on the truck has been repaired or replaced several times. It has never been babied tho. It has been drug hundreds of miles down a right away behind a dozer, drug up and down mountains that only a goat would travel. Drove literally thousands of miles total in 4 low with the go pedal mashed to the floor bouncing over rocks, thru gullies and waist deep mud. Towed heavy loads for thousands of miles and generally just beat to death. Salt and mud have not been kind to it. It did this all the while loaded with a steel pipeline welders bed on it with all the needed tools and equipment for the job every since it was new till last year till last year when I put a regular flatbed on it. Now it just hauls a 110 gallon fuel tank, a few tools, and a cooler full of my favorite drink. It still runs good and I drive it every day.
WEll when I started reading that post, I thought this must be a pipeline rig. And then you removed all doubt. lol
Yep, still is and it still get's it's share of 4 low at least a couple times a week along with being drug around with a dozer or trackhoe when it just won't go no more. I get a big smile some days when I get to work and there are all those shiney new Silverado's and FX4's lined up down the side of the road with their owners waiting on me to give em a ride cause they know I ain't gonna walk in and out just cause I'm afraid of a scratch. Hell, my truck has scratches and dents that hold fond memories. LOL
'87 6.9 Motorhome: 220,000km (140k miles) Head gasket job 6 years ago, injectors 5 years ago, IP 4 years ago. Nothing else to date but regular maintenance and a fuel pump last fall.
'90 F250 7.3 : All original but injectors and other regular wear and tear stuff. 568,000km (377k miles)! Regular maintenace will go far!
I wouldn't recomend going much pasted 200k miles on an IP tho, mine is the original and has no power, and sucks fuel like you wouldn't believe.
I recentlly calculated my MPG for the first time in probably 10 years, and i'm down to 6MPG normal driving.
(I use to get around 15 on the highway with 4.10 gears)
