Ok, I just read about the 100,000 mile club and one guy has 236k. How many trucks are over 200,000? If you have over 300,000 make a thread for you guys. I have always thought if you had 200,000 miles on a ford, you were on your 3rd engine and 4th transmission, so you guys are making me happy with being wrong. Thanks.
i dont personally, but i have a friend that has a 97. granted, its a piece cuz he beats it to hell and back, and half way back again. but so far he has 214,000 on it. it still runs strong and performs the way it should. but i will admit, the interior rattles to beat hell. but i think thats mostly cuz of the conditions he drives it in. hes always using it for hunting and messin around on back roads. but the good news is, i dont think there is any major mechanical work done to it because he is too cheap and poor ontop of that to put any money into it. so if there was something major, im assuming he would have just bought another vehicle. but its still goin

97 F150 XLT 5.4L Reg cab Flareside. Currently at 256,000 miles. Drivetrain all original except maintenance items plus the Alternator. Still has the factory radiator hoses and waterpump. Runs perfect. Uses less than a quart every 6000 miles (I switched to Amsoil and doubled the change interval). Best vehicle I've ever owned. My 2006 Trailblazer SS is just about to 112,000 miles, but it is on its third transmission (RPM Level VI that is good for 750HP). I'm fairly certain both vehicles will see 300K.
Mine will hit 145 next week so only 55k more to go.
