Default Most miles on an ecoboost.

Just curious on who has the highest miles & how many they have on an ecoboost truck. Also can you tell us tuned or not tuned. If tuned since how many miles. Oil you used & how you drive it. For the record I drive 90% of the time like a grandma, 9% normal acceleration & 5mph over the speed limits. And 1% the time like I stole it. I have not changed the oil yet & I have under 5K miles on my 2013. I also have not modified my truck in any way other than adding some simple accessories that have no effect on performance.

Almost 48K on mine. There is the kaboom thread where the guy's engine blew at 99500, so I may reconsider keeping mine for 150K like I usually do.
I have used Mobil 1 since the first oil change at 5K, I typically change oil between 7500 and 10K. As for driving, most is cruise control commuting 70 miles a day, some is getting on it for the fun of it and 11K of towing a 9500 lb fifth wheel so it has been worked pretty hard.
It has been tuned since 8K by LMS. Spark plugs burned out at 41K, replaced with newer SP-534 gapped at .031 and switched to SSI tunes. I also installed the Full Race exhaust and Wagner Tuning IC at 32K.

I've got 57k on mine. Tuned and raced for most of its life. I questioned keeping mine much longer. If I do it won't be my daily driver.

Just over 70k here. Tow with it frequently, often over weight. Been tuned since 50k. I flog it like a rabbid dog. 12k behind you and WFO going up a on ramp is pretty tough on a little motor.

My bosses has 115,000 and running strong, serviced every 8,000 miles with penzoil platinum, no tune. It has been farmed its whole life. He has had lots of chevy's on the farm prior and he is buying another ecoboost in a year, by then he should have close to 150,000 miles. He has been very happy with it and loves the power. Change the plugs is all he's done.
