Default 200k Miles

2013, 5.0L, XLT, 4X4...

I'm at 200K miles, other than coolant drain/fill and belt, any other suggestions for maintenance to keep it running (spark plugs were replaced about 5k miles ago)? There are no issues that I am aware of, it runs like new. Everything is stock other than a leveling kit.

Thank you

without playing 20 questions about what’s been done when, this is just a guessing game. Better off reviewing scheduled maintenance info and/or fordtechmakeuloco video on maintenance schedule on YouTube and compare to what you’ve done.

I have the maintenence schedule and have followed it as much as i could. I'm asking for advice on this forum because probably have real life experience that a maintenence schedule doesn't. Isn't that the point of forums, to share personal experiences?

yes, and I gave you a suggestion that would/could give you a very thorough explanation on maintenance, from a pro with arguably some of the most/best experience on these trucks. Based on your (negative) reply it appears you didn’t bother to check it out.

I did check out Ford Tech Mukoloco's video on factory service intervals, I'm a fan of him (and a subscriber) and have benefited from many of his videos.

Thank you for the info.
