124K on 2005 XLT and had to overhaul the gearbox recently, and have multiple AC issues.

157K on a 2007 XLT. Bought the vehicle a year ago with a swallowed intake valve and rebuilt another engine for it.

2000 Eddie Bauer 4x4. 79,600. Had for 1 year. Replaced pitman and idler arm. Needs gear box, play in wheel. Other than that 1 of the lucky ones. No cel, runs decent. No issues but poor mileage. I don't dare mess with it. Works good enough!

My 2007 EL 4x4 Limited got to about 168,000 and the engine started "tapping." Took it in and the dealership said the engine needed to be replaced. Didn't have any problems before that. Shame to loose such a nice condition car otherwise, but I just bought a 2015 EL Platinum 4x4 and it feels great with one exception (see trackback link in this post for details: http://www.expeditionforum.com/f50/new-member-new-expy-rust-question-26693/)

Engine gone at 168K? That's s**t. Hope you have better luck with the 2015.

05', 4x4 with 128k, bought with 99k. No issues.I replaced the fuel filter today, and I'm pretty sure it was original, since it was Motorcraft... Replaced with Motorcraft.

2000 EB, just rolled 196K, 5.4 working on rear upper trailing arms now, busted them loose with pb blaster, sprayed them 4 times, once per day and let soak overnight till parts arrived, 24"-1/2" drive breaker bar and a box end. And a lot of ibuprofen afterward. This thing has never been garaged and serious cancer underneath it. I'm gonna cry when I retire it....

2000 with 160000

'06 EB / 132k - Only issue so far was a grinding starter (pinion not meshing with the ring gear). Just dropped in a new starter yesterday which seems to be working fine, but it's the 2nd one in 6 months so we'll see if it lasts......Also may be time for a tranny flush (shudders slightly at low RPM when lightly accelerating).
