[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3148308, member: 15054"] Talked to a guy that drives his trucks way more than anyone I know. He supplies core engines and buys core engines and Loves the Dodge Diesel trucks. Always has a trailer in tow with lots of weight on it. He was fixing some busted gears in the transmission when I seen him the other day. We got to talking about the engine and he said he has fixed everything there is to fix on his old truck. He has had a lot of those trucks and one that went the longest had 1 million 2 hundred thousand miles on it with original pistons and crank. never an issue with those part. He said he keeps oil changed and filters clean and used Rotella. That trumps a buddies 300 inline 6 Ford gas that got 450,000 and was still going strong. And trumps my best ever 376,000 mile 200 inline 6 Ford gas that the vehicle fell apart around the engine and trans. I have had many vehicles that went 300,000 plus miles that never had issues but to think 1 million miles and then some..I always liked inline 6 engines. [/QUOTE]
