95 Explorer - 315,000 and counting. Everything original and stock. Does not burn or use oil between changes. Only parts I have changed are 2 fuel pumps (one at 100,00 miles and the second about a month ago), starter, alternator, shocks, ball joints and universals. Everything still works except the dash board lights.
93 F-150 351 4x4 - 116,000 miles Recent purchase has been beat and needs lots of work.

My Explorer had 193k on it when she left this world. Some idiot pulled out in front of me but it turned out to be 100% his fault and I got $1,400 for the old girl. If it hadn't been for that the truck would still be going. Explorers FTW

Our 1994 Explorer has 345,000 miles, but now needs a transmission. It's difficult to justify spending $1500 on a $1000 truck.

176,000 on my '96 Explorer... original engine and trans. I love it so much I decided to replace it with a newer one. Bought an '04 EB, couldn't part with my '96 so I gave the newer one to the wife and sold her Dodge. Why did I ever buy a Dodge? Now we have 2 Explorers... still like my '96 better!

The Explorer gets in your blood; I have had a 91 4wd with 5-speed had 200,000 miles when we sold it; a 95 4wd 5-speed, and now 2002 EB 4wd. We love them too, have a dodge truck and love it too.

how many miles you all have?

1996 Explorer, 5.0 v-8, 370,000 miles on odometer.

Same engine/trans, pretty smooth ride, and a cold a/c.

Brakes, shocks/struts, battery, tires, starter, one pulley, alternator, one interior door handle, the negative battery cable, two exterior door handles, the alarm remote, plug wires, floor mats, ball joints, the hydraulic lifts for the tail gate and hood, fuel pump, and various hoses have been changed. Probably a few other things but can't have been much more.

Everything else, other than oil, light bulbs, fluids and filters, are original. Driver's seat needs to be refurbished (seat has flattened out a bit).

Even the cassette player still works but I am changing that to something that can accept a bluetooth connection from my blackberry.

Regular maintenance has always performed on time or very close to the schedule.

It is now my ride to work which is only 3 miles away from my house. Girlfriend drives further to work so she drives the new '08 Explorer. The '96 is only driven about 70 miles a week if that much anymore. It sits in the backyard mostly. A high school kid from down the street wants to buy it for $400 but it is still worth much more than that to me. It keeps me from having to shell out $ for a new Ford which would be sitting at home most of the time anyway since the new '08 is always used for the bigger trips.

I bought a new '04 explorer and the dealer was only going to give me $500 for this one. Told him it still ran great and was worth much more...to me. A great decision to not trade it in .

Tag is $50, I still get 18 MPG on new plugs, insurance is only $250 a year (liability only). Sure I can afford another new one or a new F-150, but why buy? This one still drives great!!!

Mine is a 02 XLT with 121,000 Miles. Only had to change the front wheel bearing on right side, otherwise little maintenance issues.
