Even the 7.3 as true and tested as it is can give you problems but not on her own fault, but tthe previous owners lack of prev. maintenance.
I bought mine from a retired coouple, the license plate read "tow4fun", that tells you that she had a hard life (maybe) but she tows like a dream and never gave me any major problems (only cps,water pump,starter), obviously well maintained. So, I am sorry that yours gave you less than optimun performance, but most likely if you keep it and fix it, it should give another 300k miles of service easily.
I intend to drive mine until I die, then hopefully my kids will drive it as an antique....lol
