Might as well tell my story too, my truck a '94 F-250, 4x4, ext. cab, LWB, 5-speed with 3:56 gears, mine is a early '94 model with the regular 7.3 and a factory turbo, they started all that PSD and electronic engine control shhh...stuff in late '94, I just installed a new set of tires and wheels on it and messed up my power and fuel mileage but on a recent 160 mile round trip (after the new wheels and tires) pulling 1500# one way and 6000# back I still got 13 mpg, rolling hills and lots of small towns, knock on wood never much trouble with this truck only have 119,000 on it, replaced glow plugs last winter, durn plastic clutch slave cylinders, and it seems I may be getting some valve stem seal leakage now with a little blue smoke on cold startup, very happy with this truck I can still do whatever maintenance this truck needs, it wont pull with the PSD's or Cummins but I wont be far behind.
