I have a 99 7.3, wouldnt trade that truck for anything. Honestly the best motor out of the Ford diesels. Maintenance isnt bad ~$60 oil change. I paid 7K for mine with 168K on it. With good interior and a Reese 5th wheel setup. I have a Superchips programmer and a full 4" exhaust, helped out a ton. I get 21 mpg on the interstate, and 16 mpg towing a car trailer and the race car all day long, cant do that in a gas truck.

offer $7K and spend some money on the interior. Then you will have a keeper

I sold my 01 platinum with 185 on the clock a year ago for 13,750.
just empty the water seperator, no need to change the filters....

Found this one but it has a ridiculous amount of miles, I probably wouldn't be able to sell it because of that when the time rolled around..
