200k miles

It's official i'm now part of the 200k mile club . Yesterday on my way to work my 97 F150 4.6 auto 4x4 hit 200k miles on original motor, trans, t-case, and rear end. I bought it with 170k and have only done routine maint on it.

The guy I bought the truck from said that I am going to kill the dang thing by pulling a 4000# trailer. He was just joking though.

Congrats on the 200k. I'm closing in on 98k, I hope mine lasts to well over 200k. I do the routine maint. on it, oil changes right at 3,000 miles so I'm hoping it'll last.

I'm sure it will last you to 200k. All I've been doing for the last 30k is routine maint. on it and hope it lasts me for another 2 years when it is finally paid off.
