    Congrats on taking good care of the old girl. Good service/PM is the life of a vehicle.
    Those 7.3's were good engines. But without good care, just like anything else, it wont last that long.
    What year is that truck?

    Old Navistar engines were top notch. Didn't make the highest power numbers but they ran forever. My dad drove a 1990 F-superduty with a service body for Cat service and it had 755k. That was the non-turbo 7.3. It was very slow and would smoke out the tunnels in Pittsburgh but it never skipped a beat

    There's also a new gas powered 7.3 they put in the new Superduty's. A guy I work with has one and likes it.
