150,000 mile Report on my 2005 Cummins
Bought the truck new in June 2005 and just turned 150k. Truck has been very reliable but has had a few hiccups. Used for towing a 275 Arctic Fox fifth wheel, 13000 gross weight, although I weighed it ...

Guess you guys got lucky.
At almost 100,000 miles on my 2002 Cummins with 6 speed manual and Arctic Fox TC I've had:
Failed PacBrake compressor
$3000 worth of front end work
A complete failure of the ECM main computer ($2000 more)
Air conditioning water leaking into passenger side floor
Oil leak near the top rear of the engine that was inaccessible. BIG 3 Diesel in Tampa misdiagnosed it as a main seal, charged me around $3000, put new clutch plates in and put something together wrong and now the truck won't shift until the transmission is hot from highway use. It grinds BAD when cold since they broke all of that and they have no idea what they did wrong. Definitely don't go there.
In addition, at 10 miles a gallon, this junker is very expensive to run
Too bad you are not closer I might take that desirable pos off your hands.
What does a failed PacBrake compressor have to do with the truck?
