how many miles

136,000. Had I known about this site before I bought my truck it never would have come home with me. I would have taken a bunch more time and found the right one. With that being said here is what I have replaced:
water pump, pads and rotors all around, both calipers up front, both unit bearings, 5 u-joints, both rear leaf springs, alternator, hubs, oilpan and clutch (because I had the engine out for the oilpan) and I think that's it.
If you search thoroughly and get a good truck then you can spend the first 2 grand on mods not repairs like I did.

I had to replace the ball joints and tie rod ends when I first got it at around 67K miles. It now has 77K.

200500 miles, rotors, cailipers (few time....probably my fault more than any thing), wp, alt, ball joints/axle joints (couple times now greaseable), general front end parts (pitman, idler), stabilizer links (couple times), stabilizer bar, CPS (twice) need new steering gear and turbo (bearing) The turbo is the first motor "like" componet that needs replacing, 7.3's rock

Bought my truck with 114K, now has almost 140K some 14 months later.
CPS replaced, but old one was still working fine (changed just to have a "verified" spare)
Just replaced the brake Master Cylinder at about 138K miles, which was just beignning to leak internally.
A few minor things that showed up on the OASIS (dealer alignment at 1417 miles, refunded customer for "eccentrics" and replaced one valve cove gasket at 14321 miles, resealed turbo pedastal for oil leak at 38321 miles).
