It finally happened
I didn't do anything special to mark the occasion. I blew some smoke from 199999 to 200000. Nolan (4inchlovin) was in my truck with me. I'm gonna give the truck a bath and put some DK in the tank but then its back to work.

Popped my 200K cherry this weekend. currently sitting at 200108 miles.
she got a bath too, but not because of that. even did some spray wax. Turtle Wax spray wax is some cool stuff and it smells like mens cologne a little.

Congrats!
I'm almost to 240K. It's kinda fun to see that I have that many miles and the truck still runs and pulls as well as it does, but it also makes me sad that I've got that many fewer miles to drive my beloved truck until something major happens.

Congrats on the 200K.
Mine is 60 miles from 210,000. I was talking with some friends about our rigs the other day and I mentioned that mine was 10 years old and over 200K. They couldn't believe it was that old, said it looked to be only 4-5 years old. Obviously they didn't know Ford Super Duty's very well-the grill and the faded 99 headlights were a dead giveaway on the age.
It is comforting to see all the pickups here over 200K, knowing with proper care these rigs will last a long time.

Haha Bill, I know what you mean. I too am dreading it as I will be rolling it over the 200k mark in a mere 133k miles. At the rate I am going mine will never roll 100k. To illustrate my point, I have put 21k on it in the last 7 years.
