Default Mileage, Mileage, Mileage

I have a general question about mileage and what to expect to get out of my F150. I have a 2013 F-150 STX with the 5.0 liter motor. I have as of today 92750 +/- miles on it. I use the truck for work and would love to get 200k out of it to have it pay for itself. I do regular oil changes with Pennzoil ultra platinum (black bottle). All Ford recommended services at or before they are called for. So far I have had to replace the valve cover on the right side as the bolts holding it down failed. Ford did it for me though for nothing. Even though it was past warranty.

So.... what have you all got on your trucks? I am curious as to how many miles I can get and if there are any potential issues I may or may not be looking at as the miles accrue.

2007 5.4
About to hit 192k....I know..different engines and years.
So long as you take care of it...you shouldn't have a problem touching 200k

Somewhere there was a post within the last week from a guy who had recently bought a 2011 with 285,000 miles on a 5.0. It had been a fleet work truck at the company where he worked. An idler pulley came loose and did some damage that the company decided was too expensive to repair on a truck with that many miles. Guy was able to get into the truck cheap and did the repair himself for about 1/4 what the shop wanted. The rest of the truck appeared to be in great shape.

Default I think you’re good...

Hey Brother, I just posted sort of the same question myself today. I have a 1994 150 XLT that bought almost a year ago and it has 297k on the odometer.
I agree with everyone else, if you take care of it and perform regular maintenance you should get 200k easy. These trucks rule!

Theres a few members here with higher miles. I believe hawkster had a little over 300
I suspect I'll reach 250 without issue. Showing no signs of the usual 5.4 related failures

Default Again, wow...

Man, that is just amazing.
These trucks are definitely built to last, and it’s good to see at least some of them have owners that care...
