[QUOTE]Originally posted by NiftyWhiteFifty: [QB] I love my 2000 F250 7.3L but with my short trips to work and school, i get around 11mpg average. just took a trip to lake mcclure last weekend, towed my jetski and all my camping gear and got an average of 14.9mpg. they're great trucks and the 7.3 is a bulletproof motor. But right now i'm definitely looking to get a daily driver. diesel seems to be going up .15 cents a week. I put it up on craigslist and even on here to see what i could get for it and got no bites at 17,000. and mine only has 92,000 miles on it, 4 inch lift, 35s, exhaust and cold air intake. so yes, its a good time to buy it because guys like me get desperate to sell because of high fuel prices, and i don't need a diesel because i'm not towing anything besides a jetski and throwing my dirtbike in the back of the truck. as far as the tranny, you can buy a deep tranny pan that adds more fluid to keep it cool as well as swapping in a 6.0L tranny cooler which is bigger than the stock tranny cooler. and there are several companies that will rebuild it and upgrade it to better handle the power.
