Just under 150

I'm just under 150K and am just now starting to have major repairs. And not a 100% I can call them major. Just have a tight budget. My girls a 99 and I still love her after 12 years

200k

I have a 1999 Expedition and Knock on wood but I will be driving it from Colorado to East Pennsylvania and so far as of owning it I have done a great tune up, had some codes pop when the damn coil boots in cylinder 6 and 8 went crazy. I also am replacing the pitman arm and Idler arm tom. because the truck seems somewhat unstable on the road hitting bumps. I got 200k + on this truck and I love it. Anything I should be weary of folks. I do have to say I am a very serious Ford Man but I never have time to make the vehicles I own really mine. They are Factory but I want more, any suggestions on that as well. I am eager to hear from you. Peace. I have to share this with you, its funny. When I registered to be apart of Expedition Forums, the part where you have to type in the security code so that the site does not think you are alien or robot, well It had asked to give your answer to the question "bums on seats" well I put "Chevy Drivers" as my answer and the site would not let me finish the registration, when all I had to do is copy what was written. Dumb but smart moment YES?

205,000 miles, 99' XLT.

Had the Trannie rebuilt at around 100,000 miles.
Multiple Ball joint replacements
Replaced the plugs & coils at 180,000 miles, first time
the dealer did it (around 80,000 miles, I just bought the truck
and wanted them done).
Second time, I did it, and I'll tell you what, I won't do it again,
what a PITA!!!.
Other than that, she is running good.

i mean theyre great trucks but you cant really expect to buy any older vehicle and not have problems with it. Its just gonna happen.
lets put it this way, my next vehicle will be a ford, and the one after that
122k on the odo (might be 222k, the guy I bought it from seemed like the kind of guy that might F with an odometer lol)
