I would still have my 2003 Ford F-350 Supercab 4x4 Lariat dually with 6 speed manual transmission if it was a 7.3L, but unfortunately it was a 6.0L diesel that was beginning to have issues so I had to move on. I loved the truck and was sad to see it go but we needed a truck that we could trust to go on long trips with.
I would still have my 2005 Super Duty if it wasn't for the 400HP/800ft/lbs of torque 6.7 PSD that sucked me in. :B
I traded the truck in at 7 years and 170k miles. Replaced the EGR valve and cleaned it another time which caused drive ability issues, but took a whopping 30 minutes to replace. It performed really well and took the family in it everywhere. I even preferred driving it over the wifes vehicle when going just about anywhere.
Hind sight 20/20 I wished I would have transferred it to our ranch hand instead of purchasing a 05 dodge cummins. Which btw had more engine issues at 120k miles (all 6 injectors replaced, cracked exhaust manifold).
