I am looking at a 2017 Ecodiesel. It has 99k miles on it. What do I need to look for when inspecting the truck? Would this be a good buy or would most people likely pass on this situation? I know someone that just had the turbo fail because of the recycle cooler recall that was not taken care of soon enough. Is this a good year for these trucks? Thanks in advance.

All VM 3.0 are Hero's or Zero's, None commissioned 3.0s seem to do Well only in HWY Use. OEM COC on HWY use do OK l also. Regardless of mods to the 3.0VM the QC/Puking is inherited risk all owners need to prepare for. $5-8K+ so if your willing to take the risk make sure you have this amount for possible repair and replacement cost if needed.
