Sounds like a solid diesel. Mine has 120k on it and knock on wood has been great. Serviced at dealer till 100k. I need to do trans fluid soon and coolant flush but besides that its all good. I plan on keeping as long as it financially makes sense.

Do you have emissions in Texas? If not, you can always get rid of the clean diesel parts and tune it, that thing will last you for a long time after that and will tow even better.
