We've had a ton of 4.6 2v's in our family. My father's made it to 370,000 before rust made him sell the truck. An old woods truck I had (98 4.6) had 470,000 or so with no problems but (you guessed it) rust.
These engines, when looked after and maintained will outlive the length of the truck. I cannot speak for the 3v but I always understood they were not far off in terms of durability. Maybe someone else can vouch for them but here's my most recent 4.6 with 300,000+ on it.
They're great motors if you aren't hauling anything.

I have an 05 f150 with the 4.6. Bought the truck with 68,000 km and now sitting at 195,000 km. In that time I've had no issues with the motor whatsoever, love the motor

Great thanks for the info! Very happy with the truck! Had it since 80k and it just hit 110k and still runs perfect! I did the plugs at 100k and change the oil every 5k with motorcraft 5w20. What else should I do keep thus engine running for as long as I can?
