It has 200K miles and all I've done to it is a water pump. I towed race railers with it for years and it has an overload of porcelain tile in the bed right now.

Mine is a 2003 and I like it better than the newer ones. It has an AFE exhaust and intake that I further modified, and an Edge Juiced programmer and has averaged 26 MPG over its 200K miles. I have hit over 30 MPG with it before, and even 20-23 while towing a 30' trailer. Mine is a 2WD which helps with MPG, I have two 6x6s and 4 other 4x4s, so I didn't need a 4x4 PU truck too.

Its used Joe Gibbs Driven DP40 for years, as the truck was part of the development of that oil. It has a new test oil being ran in it now.

On the dyno it made 505 RWHP and 680# of torque. I like it.
