 I just traded it in with 52350 miles. 
It had the Powerstroke, auto. The ONLY 
thing that ever went wrong was an 
alternator failure right at 50,000 
miles.  It turns out that the 
alternator bearings were out of spec 
from the beginning and it was wearing 
out from day 1.  $160 later, I had it 
running.  Other than that, it was 
powerful, economical to drive, and 
very reliable.  I liked it well enough 
that I bought a 2003 just about like 
it!
