[QUOTE="NamVet_Farmer44, post: 473612, member: 4742"] that truck will be fine for what you are using it for...and the auto transmission should be fine...it'll pull a 14' gooseneck fine without turning the fuel up...the 7.3L is a good strong engine...and I wouldn't recommend putting a turbo on one of them, they are expensive, and from my experience, they seem to put a lot more stress on the engine than what it was built for...if it didn't come stock with a turbo, then i'd say just leave it be...and about turning the fuel up, well i've turned the fuel up a little on every non-turbo 7.3L that i've owned...but i've learned the hard way, if you turn it up too much, then them cylinder heads don't last too long on the engine :oops: ...i'd just leave that be too...sounds like a good truck and has very low miles (we've put over 300,000 miles on more than one of them trucks and they still ran fine)...so like dieselbeef said earlier, if the price is right...then jump on that offer :) [/QUOTE]
