If you've been hunting for a capable, hard-working diesel truck that won't break the bank, this 2004 Ford F-350 Super Duty Crew Cab XLT for sale at Own A Car Yakima in Yakima, WA is worth a serious look. Priced at just $8,999, this red 4WD workhorse brings serious towing muscle and long-proven utility to buyers across Central Washington who need a truck that can actually do the job.

About This 2004 Ford F-350 Super Duty Crew Cab

At 337,529 miles, this F-350 has clearly led a full life — and that's not necessarily a bad thing for a diesel truck buyer who knows what to look for. The 6.0L Power Stroke diesel engine, when properly maintained, is known to keep running well into high mileage territory. What matters most with a truck like this is the service history and current mechanical condition, not the odometer alone. This is a full-size Crew Cab with the 6 3/4-foot bed, giving you both passenger room and genuine hauling capacity. The red exterior adds a bold, classic work-truck look that still turns heads on the job site or down the highway. At this price point, it represents strong value for buyers who need a capable diesel without a new-truck payment.

2004 Ford F-350 Super Duty Performance and Engine

Under the hood sits Ford's 6.0L V8 turbocharged diesel — the Power Stroke engine that powered countless work trucks, commercial fleets, and farm operations throughout the mid-2000s. Paired with an automatic transmission and full 4WD capability, this truck was built for serious tasks. The F-350 Super Duty platform is rated for substantial towing capacity, making it ideal for pulling trailers, equipment, or livestock. The 4WD system gives you confidence on muddy job sites, snowy mountain roads, and the rough terrain that Central Washington and the surrounding region regularly dishes out.

The 6.0L Power Stroke does have a reputation that buyers should understand. Early versions of this engine had documented issues with EGR coolers and head gaskets, but trucks that have made it to high mileage with these problems resolved — or already addressed — can be genuinely reliable daily drivers and work vehicles. A pre-purchase inspection by a diesel-knowledgeable mechanic is always smart at this mileage level.

Ford F-350 Features and Interior

The XLT trim represents Ford's mid-level Super Duty package, stepping up from the base XL with added comfort and convenience features. The Crew Cab body style gives you a full rear seat, making this truck as practical for a family or crew as it is for hauling cargo. Whether you're running workers to a job site in Ellensburg or making a long haul out toward the Tri-Cities, everyone rides in genuine comfort.

XLT Trim Highlights

The XLT package typically included power windows, power locks, cruise control, air conditioning, and upgraded interior trim compared to base models. The Crew Cab adds meaningful rear legroom and storage space, giving this truck versatility that a regular or extended cab simply can't match. The 6 3/4-foot bed strikes a practical balance — long enough for full sheets of plywood and standard loads, while keeping overall truck length manageable.

Ford F-350 Reliability and Ownership

The Ford Super Duty platform earned its reputation as one of the toughest truck lines ever built. The heavy-duty frame, solid axles, and diesel powertrain are engineered for years of hard use. Owners of high-mileage diesel trucks often report that the engines and transmissions outlast the body and accessories by a wide margin — which is why a well-maintained diesel at 337K miles can still be a smart purchase for the right buyer.

Buyers considering this truck should budget for typical high-mileage diesel maintenance: cooling system components, injectors, turbo inspection, and general fluid services are worth evaluating. That said, this truck represents a realistic, affordable entry point into the heavy-duty diesel segment — a new or low-mileage equivalent would cost three to five times as much. For a farm truck, a secondary work vehicle, or a buyer comfortable with diesel maintenance, this F-350 makes practical sense.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the 2004 Ford F-350 Super Duty a good buy at high mileage?

For diesel-savvy buyers, yes. The 6.0L Power Stroke diesel and heavy-duty drivetrain are built for longevity. Trucks that have had known 6.0L issues addressed and maintained properly can remain reliable well past 300,000 miles. A pre-purchase inspection is highly recommended.

How many miles is too many on a diesel truck?

Unlike gasoline engines, diesel engines are designed for high-mileage use. Many diesel trucks run reliably past 400,000 to 500,000 miles with proper maintenance. Mileage matters less than service history and current mechanical condition on a diesel-powered vehicle.

What does the F-350 XLT trim include?

The XLT trim adds power windows, power locks, cruise control, air conditioning, and upgraded interior touches over the base XL. The Crew Cab body style includes a full rear seat and additional interior space, making it a versatile option for both work and personal use.

What should I know about the 6.0L Power Stroke diesel before buying?

The 6.0L has a known history with EGR cooler and head gasket issues, particularly in earlier production years. Trucks that have had these repairs completed and have been maintained correctly tend to run very well at high mileage. Ask about service records and consider a diesel specialist inspection before purchase.
