My Dad has a 85 F-250 with a 6. 9 and a C6 auto. and it has 200,000 on it . The transmission went out at about 180,000 but the motor has never been into . It does like starters and alternators but I might have fix that because he was putting to small of batteries in it and it has had a few water pumps put on it and a set of glow plugs and a injector pump and a set of injectors . Now it aint as fast as my Dodge but it still runs good .

ahh,the memories,glad to see folks aint forgettin the oldies,theres a lot of old 6. 9 and 7. 3 still on the job sites and in the loggin woods in my region. ive seen a bunch with 400+k on them. actually my uncle use to have 89 model 7. 3 with a ats turbo on it,he hauled horses all over the south with it,when we were loaded my 92 cummins could take him off the line,but once we got rolling,i couldnt touch him,he had over 200k and a bunch of ideling time on that truck when he wrecked it,wish i knew back then how to turn my pump up!!
