new guy here

hi, i just bought an 07 screw with the 4.6 3v last week. what kinda mileage should i get out of this motor with proper care?


i know this is not a chevy forum but my company worktruck is a 98 z71 with 175k with no issues to date but a little oil comsumption.

this is my first ford and wonder how they compare.

If properly maintained,,I don't see why you shouldn't get 300K + out of it!
