Buying used. How many miles are too many?

[Powerstroke Cowboy]

We shall see how well they last. They have enough in pickups right now to get a good test.

Ford announced the installation of its 500,000th 6.7-liter Power Stroke V-8 turbocharged diesel engine, which went into a new 2014 Ford Super Duty F-350 Lariat pickup truck. The engine was installed September 23 at Kentucky Truck Plant in Louisville.

Now to see how the 2015 model goes and does for them.

Any more recent opinion, and failures on the 6.7 now that some are approaching the 5 year mark ? Anyone gone past 250k ?

I read this entire thread the other day and meant to revive this thread.

That is extremely impressive all the way around sportchassis.

what do yall think about a 2015 F250 xl crew cab long bed, 4x4, but pw, pl, power fold mirrors, remote start, and 90k miles. Its below trade in and blue book just worried about the miles on a 2015.

I bought my 2012 in 2014 with 140k on it, I now have 187k. Only issue was turbo and I replaced before failure, it might still be going but better safe than sorry when hauling a 42' fifth wheel around. Truck is very reliable.
