ok guys im new to the diesel ownership.. i have been around many of them as thats what most ppl are goin to these days.. but i just bought my self a 01 duramax and was wondering how many miles most of the Allison 1000's are holding up to. keep in mind this is a bone stock truck. nothing has ever been added but fluids. thanks.

Kind of a hard question to ask people on these forums because 98% of people have a tune/not-stock engine.

There are more than a couple guys on the Diesel Place with 500,000+ on theirs though.

a buddy of mine has 366k on his orignal trans in a mostly stock truck towing some outrageous loads at times (ie 25k+) but I also think he's got a horseshoe up his a$$.:spit:

Mine has been tuned its entire life, and I've got 245,000+ on it. Of course, I have to be careful in 5th (especially towing), but it holds everything I throw at it otherwise. If the truck is stock, with regular maintenance, I'd bet at least 400k+ (possibly even 750k as shown above).
