That just means she is all broke in finally haha. You have the potential to have that thing for years and years with that few miles. Mine runs pretty darn good all things considered at 215k.

oh i'll have her forever ;) so long as she doesn't get totaled..i've lost 2 of my trucks due to that :(

yeah i'm glad i was able to get such a low mile creme puff! best part is trucks dont rust here!! :headbang:

I envy you for that. My doors are all rusted at the bottom, and I just had a rear fender rust clean through over the winter. I am going to wash my next truck religiously in the winter haha. Its amazing how much damage salt can do haha. My buddy that lives in ND has rust free vehicles too since they don't salt up there. Though it sounds like they are going to start this next year...

I've had my 98 EB 4x4 5.4 since 98, when I got it with 12,000 on it. Now have 148,000 on it with just reg maintenance. Still solid, aiming for 300,000 before doing anything major.

Mine has 70K and is a 99 I think I have the baby of the bunch... bought from an old italian guy who worked for the DPW in a town that is about a square mile. He drove it to work and on a few short trips...

thought *I* had a cream puff! 88k, bought 2 yrs ago with 85k. Replaced rear diff fluid (chatter) and have my suspicions about a dicey coil pack, otherwise it's like new!

Just gone over 128,000 this week. When I put my built motor just under 2 years ago it had 112,000 on it. I was averaging about 4,000 year prior to my build..........:think:




I think I will take her for a spin..

191K + on bottom end, less than 5K on top end (swapped over to PI heads with tune) and original tranny. Runs like a beast.
