My 2011 FX4 had 99,300 miles on it when I traded for a 2016 Explorer Sport.

I changed the plugs at 82k because it started missing (porcelain was cracked).

The only other warranty items, since new, 1 CAT, vacuum pump, seat heater, and blower resistor.

I only got rid of the truck because I am on a car reimbursement program at work and I was about to be out of compliance on model year.

If I recall, you have had yours tuned for a while. How is that working out? Any issues that you could attribute to the tune? I'm curious, as I'm thinking about tuning my 14 EB.

About to roll 100k miles on my 2011 EB SCREW XLT. Plenty of issues over that time - nervous about the extended warranty expiring. It's going in the shop tomorrow for new shocks and brakes, and I will have them go over it real well to look for any problem areas. Hope to get 150k out of it before I move on to the next truck.

Been tuned for 90k miles. Nothing that would be tune related, have the phaser/cold start rattle issue that is unresolved and probably affecting performance according to others who had theirs fixed.

Which tunes do you run? Which one(s) work best for every day?

I have SSi tunes, not the latest version but the ssi2ts2 variety. Going up in numbers gets more aggressive, meaning 3 is more aggressive and 4 is all out power. A 1 is very laid back. A lot of guys go 2 for everyday driving, 3/4 are those who want more aggressive driving, a 1 is for like snow when you want a very laid back tune with steady throttle control. Some people like that for every day as well, I have never tried a 1

I just went and looked at a '11 EcoBoost today with 110k on it and it had the rattle. No thanks.
