I had an '81 F150 with the straight six in it when I was in high school. That truck had nearly 300,000 on it when I sold it, and it still ran like a top. Those old straight 6 engines where amazing.

They still have a ways to go to beat Irv Gordon's 1966 Volvo P-1800 that has over 3 million miles on it. 60K miles for 50 yrs. Guinness record for a non commercial vehicle. No I'm not a Volvo salesman... just amazed at this record!! Ford trucks still rule...

- 382,500 miles -
2001 F-150 Harley-Davidson Screw (not supercharged) 5.4L EFI bought new in June 2001.
I live in Austin and have worked in Fort Worth since 2006, driving an average of 800 miles per week.
Pickup currently uses around 1/2 quart of oil between changes (began using synthetic at 90,000 miles), changed every 5000 miles.
Transmission is original, never been touched by a mechanic.
Still using original water pump, power steering pump, coils, and fuel injectors.
In 2003, Ford replaced the torque converter under warranty at 50,000 miles.
In 2010, new timing chains installed (by dealer) at 240,000 miles.
In 2012, replaced original alternator at 275,000 miles,
also replaced the starter because I'm an idiot and wired it up backwards...
In 2014, replaced right rear axle & bearing at 300,000 miles.
In 2014, installed the Ford Racing SVT lowering kit (M3000L), handles much better now!
In 2015, replaced fuel pump at 370,000 miles.
A/C still works, but compressor seals are leaking - have to buy a refrigerant kit once a year and recharge it for the season.
This pickup has been thru six batteries and six sets of tires.
Have replaced all the wear-and-tear suspension components multiple times now - on 2nd set of lower control arms, 3rd set of lower ball joints, third set of upper ball joints, 3rd set of shocks (just replaced again last month).
Last but not least, I've been thru at least a dozen sets of brake pads. When I was working in Austin from 2001 to 2005, driving up and down the hills there, I had to replace the front pads every 20,000 miles. (bought lifetime warranty pads at Autozone in 2001...)
