    Eating my words now on my previous posts on this thread and yes I ended up buying it very cheap 3 years ago .
    873k on it now and pretty much been thru it from front to rear including a complete inframe ( isx 450) still looks good and tight ...paid for too.
    2019 and early 2020 the emissions system was non stop headaches so it went away .
    Minus the overhaul at 684k and the delete its really been a good truck and continues as such .

    882k on my 2013 now and overall its been a pretty darn good truck
    Bought it with 511 on the clock and had a few surprises but I can't complain.

    The engine ? Ahh... #### it. I know that ####t very well and if needed i can inframe it... im thinking to replace the truck. If i can find manual cascadia 126 i will do it.

    Had two with 790k and 840k

    One cracked liner due to DPFs clogged other one was sold and I still believe it runs today. Both orig engines.

    Best piece of advice ? Get rid of DPF asap and that engine will last longer, change oil every 16-18k , regular maintenance n should hit 1mil easy.
