I'll add the GM 6.0 v8 to your list too. Have one at 378k miles with just regular maintenance and a radiator so far. The truck it replaced had ~380k as well. My work truck is at 180k now and still going well other than some brake/possible bearing issues in the rear. But, I do think it is carrying over what it should be with the covered utility box so.... All of them are running 2-6 hours per day tooTo your point only 4 years of service. Commercial inventory is only a fraction of overall sales of trucks. There are far more 7.3s on the road that are 80k or less on miles so we need more history. I’m a fan of the engine too, I had one. If someone put a gun to my head and said give me engine that will last 200k miles, I would give them one out a Tacoma because there’s track history over a long period of time and proven data that engine with normal maintenance will go 200k.
To add: The 7.3 in commercial use are tuned down for longevity.
