Many people view a gas truck with 150K miles as worn out. A diesel with that milage is viewed as broken in.
What people? Do you have a Facebook page? I will just talk GM here but over at the GMT 800 board which is HUGE compared to this place 150,000 is just broken in on an LS based gasser. There are threads every week about high mileage gassers. You should take a look if you get a chance. This isn't 1960. I am not saying a gasser will out last a diesel but there are literally 10's of thousands of 4.8, 5.3 and 6.0 trucks with well over 250,000 miles on them putting in work everyday on the original engine and transmission.
They have a running thread for gas trucks with over 500,000 miles on them and its a pretty good size list.
