I know of nothing wrong with those trucks, especially since the 7.3L is such a great engine. The problem is the darn things are so noisy. The quiet diesels didn't come out until '03... stay away from the '03s with production dates prior to June '03 just to be safe.

My recommendation is that you purchase an extended warranty for the truck if you can, it should give you real piece of mind.

Again, i know of nothing bad about the trucks, especially in that year range at the end of their production. The choice is yours, but i've been a Ford Truck guy all my life so...
