I would say if you are happy with a chevy than I would go buy one but long before you hit 200k you will be replacing all the same stuff.

holy Toledo Batman! 200k plus is lot of miles unless you know exactly how the truck was treated previously. was it run hard? I doubt it was babied. regardless, with that many miles, I am sure you got a good deal on it. repairs and replacing parts with that many miles is completely acceptable in my book. I work my truck very hard (towing) but take even better care of it. "extremely well maintained" describes my truck to the letter. I hope you get that fine 7.3L up and running well soon.
