[MBZ] OT Powerstroke?

[Kaleb C. Striplin]

So I went looking for a new truck yesterday.  My current truck a 95 1 
ton dually 6.5 td doesnt really have room for the whole family being a 
single cab.  Though it would be nice to have an extended cab if I wanted 
to haul everyone around.  So I been keeping an eye out for a newer 
Duramax.  A car lot nearby has a 01 with 174k miles on it for 13.8k. 
Anyway, while in tulsa yesterday I stopped by one of those big chevy 
dealers and test drove an 04 DM with 30K miles, they are wanting 
something like $27k for it.  Geez, its SURE a nice truck but not sure I 
want to spend that kind of money for one.  Then I went to check out the 
01 with 175K at a smaller lot.  It was sort of a let down from the fully 
loaded 04 but still a nice truck.  Just wonder if its wore out though 
with 175k but I woulnt think so.  At this same lot, they have a 05 F250 
Powerstroke , crew cab, for $18,900.  Thats DIRT CHEAP.  Only problem is 
that its got 150K miles on it.  Thats ALOT of miles for a 1 year old 
truck.  Anybody know anything about these newer powerstrokes?  Is that 
too many miles for such a truck?
