So im looking at upgrading to a 95 Powerstroke with the 7.3 W/ the Manual Tranny. The on im looking at has 303,000 Miles on it but looks like its been well maintained. The price they are selling it at is 6990, but im going to try to get them down to 6 or lower. Now my question is. is this truck with this many miles worth this much? And will it last without having to rebuilt motor/tranny? Let me know what you know!

Thanks guys

it would be for me. I love my 95 and the only tranny trouble i've had is MY FAULT. i have driven trucks for so long i forget to use my clutch in my p/u so i was having some sincro problems.
if it were me i would buy it right up but that is my personal opinion based on my experiance.

At that price you could drop a new engine in it if you had the coin.

I bought a 97 F350 7.3 psd dually for 7500 two years ago. Too much in my opinion.

Can't answer the price question for you. However mine has over 330K miles, I change my sig every 10K miles. Daily driver, and my worst problem is a nagging fuel leak. Change one thing and another starts to leak. Hoping to change out to an electric fuel set up in the next month or two. As for the miles, just depends on how it was maintained. Good Luck.

Check into the history of the truck if you can, OBS odometers go to 399,999 then revert back to 300,000 and work their way up again. So if you don't know the truck, it could have 400,000; 500,000 or even more miles. A previous employer's truck read 3xx,xxx and had over 700,000 km on it

this explains my dads truck then. why do they do this?

It would be worth it to me if it was a VARIFIED one owner truck, but it looks like its on a lot. I always try to buy original owner vehicles, especially if it's an ole' timer that only used it to pull his and ma's travel trailer
