Someone posted the mileage wrong. If you look at the photo of the dash the actually mileage is 159,662. Low Miles!! But a really nice rig!!

And how do we know that the odometer didn't roll over once?

It's definitely possible. Even if, there's life in it yet.


How much does it cost to rebuild a Cummins, anyways?

Yep, Tuckerdee, unfortunately you're wrong. That truck is a 1.6 million mile truck! That truck used to belong to my brothers neighbor who is a retired fire marshall. He bought it new, used it on his farm and is now selling it! Hard to believe? No way, its a cummins! hehe!

??? then the Odometer is wrong. after 999,999 it goes to zero. so it would be 1,159,662, or as shown 159,662 Not 1,600,000

I wrote to the owner in Texas. waiting for a response

No way that thing has 1.5 million on it. Unless the entire truck has been rebuilt, it is way to clean. Not nearly enough wear on the interior. It just looks too nice to be a million mile truck.

Maybe I got the deal of the century or something but if that truck has that many miles than it is too much IMO. The PO of my truck delivered Travel trailers out of S. Indiana and
my truck was purchased for much much less than that asking price about five years ago. My truck has 1.2 million miles on it. But the Dodge/Cummins combo wasn't as valubule then as it is now.
