'07 Lariat - Bought brand new in 2006, up to 282,000 miles with no engine issues. It's still my daily driver. Take good care of them and they'll last a very long time!

My 2005 KR just passed 201000 miles and is still running strong. Wouldn’t hesitate to take it on another 1000 mile road trip and have one planned for early June. It’s always started right up and never once has it let me down.
Only things I’ve done to it would be normal wear and tear items. But honestly, when a truck reached 16 years old and passes 200k miles aren’t all maintenance items considered wear and tear? It’s had a great life and anything past this is icing on the cake.

I bought a 06 with 315,000 miles on it from my parents. My mom ran it out of oil once, ( it had a leak at the oil filter adapter) Never had a cam job, and they only changed the plugs once in its lifetime. I changed the plugs, replaced the injectors, fuel pump, and cleaned the throttle body and it runs pretty good now.
