Yeah. Because having to replace an engine at 371,500 miles when it is used almost exclusively for towing is pretty embarrassing.....
Vern, you should know by know that all those 3.0 diesels are worthless. Your low mileage before overhaul proves that......:R
For a diesel truck, yes that is low miles for a full engine replacement compared to the HD diesel in the same driving conditions. That is why someone stated that knowing this changes things.
As I said. I am not knocking his truck, but it should be stated when talking about that amount of miles so people don't get the wrong impression as they clearly did here. It is just something that I would do as well if it were my truck just like my dad does when talking about his old 97 F150 with 270k on the truck and 90k on the 2nd engine.
