Not sure why anyone cares about the 7.3L. According to the HD gas owners here, they don't need more power which is why they bought the gas engine instead of the diesel. So why would an engine with more power that you will have to pay more for matter now?
I would not pay much of a premium for the 7.3 vrs the 6.2, that has been a great engine for many years. If the 7.3 adds a little HP/TQ, with similar mileage and reliability, it will mostly be a marketing tool (mine's bigger than yours). Moving forward, with new engines, body styles, does improve sales. Just seems the old numbers get stagnant (6.2 6.0 5.7).
