Just about 29,000. Bought it December of last year with almost 16,000. Oil change every 2500 to 3000 mi. 29,000mi, a pleasure for every single mile.
I'm not so sure I will see 100,000 with this one. I am forever tempted by the Lightning.

30K Lots of problems
Hmmmm, most doing better than me. 4.6L, SC, auto, year 2000, 30K miles.
Changed/Fixed:
Head gasket and head replaced, oil sending unit replaced, wiper motor replaced, heater blower motor replaced. All the doors had to be realigned when new. Transmission is rumbling a little right now - understand it may be torque converter? Head block connection still weeping oil after new head replaced.
Lousy trade in value so got the 100K warranty until I can decide what to do and before 36K warranty ran out. This sucks. To bad I still like the ride. It would be better without all the problems. Thinking about the 2004 as they are revamping the 5.4L.
Regular oil changes, transmission flushed at 25K, rotate tires every 5-8K.
