How many miles on your 6.2

We are starting to get some high mileage 6.2 out there so I'm thinking that it may help someone looking at the 6.2 to know that it can be a durable motor.

Mine has 16K on it without any problems but compared to others it's very low mileage. Last time I checked my towing miles 10K of the 15K were pulling my 15.6K trailer so I work it hard.

Got my 2015 cc 4x4 6.2 around Christmas. I have about 1500 miles on it now. No trailer towing, but I have snow plowed with it a few times. Love everything except the gas mileage. Most of my use is short drives, so I'm sure that doesn't help. Plan to change oil pretty soon. I was going to use Mobile 1. My wife said I better hold on to this truck for 10 years. (We'll see ).

Motorcraft filters. Hot shot rig. Works hard everyday. Nuff said.

67k on my 11 working very hard. Plowing, towing 5-10 k on a regular basis. I love this engine I was thinking about it yesterday when I finished my plow route and saw a f550 7.3 chip truck w 20 ft trailer and tractor on it in the ditch. I pulled him out no problem. I plan to keep this truck for a long time

46,000 miles, lots of towing my 8,000lb camper, and a little bit of towing my equipment trailer with tractor on it at about 14,000lbs. No complaints.

Got my 2011 F-350 Lariat in March of 2011. It pulls around our 36' travel trailer from spring to fall (6,800 miles so far) and then to the farm hunting and moving firewood in the fall and winter. As of this past weekend I have 19,980 miles on it. Very happy so far, just don't get to drive it enough!

I am a little embarrassed to say this, but my 2012 F250 has 10,250 miles. We had two camping trips planned last year, but due to my DW's serious illness we were unable to go anywhere. We are planning two trips this year, but we'll see.

I hope the DW is doing better and that you get both of those trips in this year. Maybe even an extra one or two trips for good measure.

I just hit 14k miles on my 2013. About 2.5k of those is towing. So far no issues with the engine, just small things like the rear camera stopped working, etc.

X2 on this one, hope you have many great trips. We went through the same thing two years ago.
