1994 w/5.8l, just turned 72,000mi. Basically parked for the 6 1/2 years we lived in Italy. With gas prices over $2 a gallon, the motorcycle is getting all the miles.

Bought my 96 new when they were closing them out forever. 49k miles as it's only been driven weekends & vacations. XL with 5.0, 5spd & air. It's main function now is pulling our 21' trail lite (4500# loaded), with 5 bikes & canoe (one on the front, 2 on the tire carrier and 2 on the roof with the canoe in the middle using a 3 bar Thule rack) then 4 wheeling after we get there. One of the few vehicles wide enough to get 3 child seats across in the rear seat. Added a 5 point harness to the middle of the back seat to keep everyone strapped in.

Put on KYB's, rear add a leafs & 31 mt.

Salmonhead & family.

86 EB 5.0 Had 25,000 on it with a broken speedo/odo when i got it, so who knows how much it really has.. fixed the speedo, ran it upto over 33,000 and the speedo broke again.. i'm sure it would be up to 60,000 by now.. thinking of swapping in a 5.0HO out of a mustang. since it's current 5.0 is getting tired.

Hey I bought mine at 17k, that's either 117k or 217k. Oh well, as long as it works right?

Wait 'til 150k and see if you can repeat the above...
Yes, mine *was* fine at that point, too.
