Who’s still using a 7.3 diesel truck
Who’s still using a 7.3 diesel for there TC? How long have you had it? What TC do you have? What’s are some of the must haves to keep it chugging along happily with TC on top? Cheers

Great write up, and thanks for taking the time to do so! Our soon to be ours 7.3 will also be getting an adventurer But the 910DB model, So it’s going to be a dually. With all the things you listed for maintenance that’s pretty much every long standing 7.3 owners check list for these trucks. I’m in Alberta, Canada so truck bodies don’t last around here either unless the previous owners took good care.
Either way I’m looking forward to getting behind the wheel of one!
Thanks Jtime. The 910DB is a beautiful model ... heavy puppy too so the dually will come in handy. Like anything old, the 7.3 takes time and money to maintain but it sure beats the cost of buying a new)er) one. At least AB doesn't put salt down like ON.
FWIW - One of our chitlins calls Grande Prairie home. I drove out there a few summers ago with the truck and a cargo trailer full of furniture for them. 52 hours straight driving from KW ... that included about 2 hours of rest time as needed.
