Good to hear, I picked mine up at 98k in december. I now have 107,700. I have replaced the water pump and radiatior in this time, which is understandable. I hope I get many more years out of her.192k on my 08 F350 and I would trust it to go anywhere
Remember the selection bias you are getting from this forum (or others). Pretty much no one on PSA drives a stock truck. Many on here at least dyno their trucks if not sled pull and/or take it to the track, plus forums typically are a place where problems are posted. All makes and models have flaws...some more than others. All of them have horror stories (one problem after another) and ones that seem to be built like a brick sh#house). Some are cheaper to work on or fix than others. In my way of looking at, if you can't do without it (i.e. don't have a back up vehicle) or you can't afford to fix it if there is a catastrophic failure, you should probably own a cheaper vehicle or one with a warranty.
That is some good points to remember, I understand all modified things break and I am able to handle 90% of them just not 10K at a time lol.
Guess I will just need to build a chuck just for the o-**** chance it happens.
fingers crossed.
honestly daily driving it helps with reliability....and to be honest the trucks are reliable....many many many many, companies run 6.4's for landscaping and construction and many guys run them to plow with and tow their 5th wheel campers across the country with their wife and kids, and put a lot of miles on them 100% stock with little to no issues. most common i'd say is the radiator, maybe belt tensioner, a water pump...minor issues for the most part.
Some of these recent comments make me a little at ease, the trucks got all the job 1 corrections done and new water pump and radiator so hopefully I can just continue to keep up on maintenance and reliability mods and she will stay happy. next up is 100% going to be gearhead tunes, the shift points on the H&S hot suck IMO.
