She made it...

Well my F-250 hit another milestone yesterday..... I bought her used in the fall of 2007 with 70k on the clock, and she continues to be an awesome truck.

Thanks fellas! She looks good from 10-15 feet away Up close you can see the battle scars from hunting, fishing, camping, offroading, etc. But overall she's in pretty good shape.

This guy made 1,299,986 in his 5.4L before the engine expired.

If he can do it by changing the oil every 10-20k miles, then you stand an excellent chance of making it.

Wow! I change my oil every 5k with mobil 1 synthetic and ford motorcraft filters so she should continue on for a while. Man that mileage is impressive

I think you can officially consider her broken in now!

There are a LOT of examples of modulars going well over 500K miles. Keep taking care of her, and she'll keep taking care of you.

Dings, dents, scratches are all badges of honor, and everybit as good as a photograph to remind you of a grand adventure!
