300,000, just before you sell it. The 6.0 don't need any tuners, chips, performance enhancers, unless you want to drage race with a 8,000# $48,000 truck. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif[/img]

I didn't wait long. At 1,000 miles I installed the SCMT 1700 and gauges. That was 56,000 trouble-free miles ago.
