2000 F250 7.3 with chip kit that was approved by Ford at the time,
150k miles, regular oil and filter changes, DC-9 in radiator, only minor repairs and recall changes, super spring kit. It has only been used to tow the camper. Every time I take it in for servicing I have someone come up and want to know if I want to sell it. I have now added a Revelco anti-theft chip.

I have ~250k on mine. It has been chipped for 150k. Trans finally gave up at 230k. It's been a good truck. I figure I'll hand it down to my son some day.

192k on mine. Not quite stock either. Already had gauges, MBRP Exhaust and K&N air kit. Had trans worked on with bully dog springs installed, Other than that stock. When I bought it it had 172k on it. Looks almost band new. Interior is perfect and original paint. First thing I did to it was remove the K&N filter and replace it with NAPA 6637 paper one. I added the TS Performance chip and run it at the 50 HP setting and get 20mpg unloaded. Added some Westin bars and had the gearing changed from 3:55 to 4:10.

Just been doing the maintenance the last 2 years I have owned it. Been Great Truck and pulls my 5th really well.
Just plan to replace what ever goes bad and upgrade the power to about 350 HP.

I have 220,000 on my 2000 F350 and have been towing a 13,000# fifth wheel for the last 50,000 miles. The fifth wheel weighs 10,600# empty and is rated for 14,000#. I saw the post about boosting the hp and wondered how many miles others have been towing and how many miles total.


Tow vehicle in my sig just went over 76K miles with close to 60% of that towing at about 16.5K. Zero repairs except replacing the UVC harness which was a know issue and due to a poor Navistar design.
