05 with 186l 7500Hrs runs like new
Just bought a ex Terminix truck - 5.4 with auto pulls like made, runs great on open highway. Just filled up starting mu MPG test.
186K miles with 7500 hours - must have sat idling for a while each day.
It seems like the key to these ford running long is rigid fleet maintenance program.
Being on the back end of the tech refresh cycle cant hurt either. the 6.2 out for 5 years now.

5.4 - it was making valve-type noises along with the regular 5.4 noises, then it ran rough, made a noise like a shredded serpentine belt slapping the accessories then the noises went away (the serpentine belt was fine). Its now quieter than its been in 3 or 4 hundred k miles. Scaring the crap out of me so I am planning to replace the engine in a couple of weeks.

01 super crew 2wd
01 super crew 4.6l bought in 2005. Had 26k I currently have 305,329 and counting. Daily driver all it's life and I'm still driving and working it as it was made to do. Does anyone know if ford is going to start up a high mileage club and if so what mileage would it begin at?

I have about 200 miles on the AER rebuilt 5.4 3v in my '04 FX4 SC. Original engine melted the cam into the passenger head at 117,000 miles. The truck is still nice so I sunk about $6000 into the engine, labor, and parts.
Previous F150 was a 97 SC LWB 2WD 4.6 that I sold with 340,000 miles. That was a great truck, but it got rusty.

2006 F-250 XL 5.4l just turned 173k miles. I bought it with 172k. Was a fleet vehicle for a utility company. Already know that at full load acceleration there's a miss on the 5th and 7th cylinders. Getting ready to replace all the plugs and coils. The plugs were already replaced with the updated ones. Wheww! Other than that it runs great. I drove it down to NYC yesterday and it did fine on the 100 mile RT. Sitting in traffic etc.
