120,000 on 98 F-150 Lariat. Drove it off the dealers lot with 95 miles on. Only things fixed were; passengers window door motor at about 60K, number 3 & 4 coil packs at 56k and again at about 110k, ball joints and tie rod ends at 118K. Other than that a very reliable truck.

Had a 81 F-100 previously that had over 200K on the original motor and transmission. Had two clutches replaced in it over about 15 years.

136,000 on my 99 F150 SuperCab XLT 5.4L Flareside - Oxygen sensor went bad around 70k
Had to replace standard stuff, tires, plugs... very little brake work has been needed but time for it now, cruise control started working intermittantly at 125k, and currently has a starting issue.

Overall has been OUTSTANDING and I love it!!!

1998 Lincoln Navigator 178,000miles. Run like a champ till last week when I had a blow out. The tread of the tire broke the engine harness plug. I know after I replace the harness the engine will be back and better then ever. I love my truck only problem I've ever had is changing the ball joints, and a/c compresor leak. Which were all fixed before she hit 100k. This is one hell of a built truck.

138K on 1990

I have 138K on a 1990 F150 4x2 XLT. But not putting any more on it as it is dead in the water right now. Still troubleshooting a fuel system charging problem.

I'm in with 176,000 miles on my '95 with the 302. I heard horror stories from some people saying "It won't last past 120k!" or "Those engines all blow up between 100k & 125k!' Well, all I know is that with routine maintenance, 3000 mile oil changes (SUPER-SUPER IMPORTANT!), and a little TLC they will go a long way past 120K! Heck, my factory water pump didn't give out until 165K! I've never put that many miles on any water pump on any car I've ever had. Recently, my exhaust system blew out (manifold flange & cat converter came apart) and I'm looking for a front-to-rear replacement. I can fix the truck for a lot less money than I can replace it!

Just a quick aside: This forum is just about the best thing I've found online to help me with my truck! I may not have as new a truck as most of you, but I am getting so much info from all the postings. Keep it up! And thanks!

My 98 has 232,000 on it. Purchased it from a local Ford dealer about 2,000 miles ago. It was used as a parts truck at the dealership. The 150 is a reg. cab 4x4 off road black and silver (pics coming soon) with an 8 ft. bed. The trucks body is in awesome shape! paid $3.900. Don't think it's ever seen the OFF ROAD
