Buying a high miles 7.3 powerstroke?
So I'm looking at this truck i want to buy. Its a 1999 ford f350 powerstroke diesel crew cab long bed. It looks like its in amazing condition. No rust other than the front bumper. He wants $7000, but the catch is that it has 305000 mils on it. I'm a diesel guy so i know diesels last forever. 500,000-600,000 miles if kept in good condition. If i have a diesel mechanic look at it and its in good condition, is it a good deal? I'm only 20 years old. Its my first truck i'm going to buy on my own so i don't think its a bad investment. I will be doing work with it. For a first truck it isn't that bad i don't think. Any advice or mechanics input?
