Had 196K on my '95 5.0L when I sold it. I replaced the plugs twice and needed a new AC compressor, that's the only repairs under the hood. Rebuilt the 5spd tranny @ 180K. Truck never ever left me stranded. The day I sold it I'd have driven it anywhere.
Current truck is '11 F250 w/6.7L diesel and 140K and again, I'd take it anywhere as it sits. I'd not think twice about hooking up 10K # and setting the cruise @ 75 assuming the road wasn't snowy/icy.
