1994 Toyota T100 4x4 had 300,000 miles and no issues ever. Sold it for 6,500 on eBay.

2002 Toyota Tundra 3.4L 4x4 had 289,000 and no issues ever. Sold it for $5,500 on Facebook.

2008 Toyota Tundra 5.7L 4x4. Only 89,000 so far , but shooting for 300,000 again.

Drove millions of miles working... any more don't like getting on the road, my 2004 just turned 82k.

421k on my 06 dodge with 5.9 Cummins and auto, one trans rebuild and 3 sets of injectors
181k on my 03 dodge with 5.9 Cummins and 6 so manual

I have a 2004 F-150 Heritage with just over 275,000. All original but she is a 7 cylinder now.

my current 1998 Chevy Chyenne 1500 has 287,000 and still going strong.My previous Chevy S10 was an 1985 and had 313,000 when I sold it to a friend. in 2001. He drove it until he wrecked it in 2011. Previous to that I had an 1972 Chevt Std cab short box with 319,000 on it when I wrecked it.

2007 Hummer H3. 215,000 miles. No motor problems other than 2 water pumps. New trans at 173000. I'm not hard on a transmission. Kinda surprised me. Had a lean reading that was heck to track down. Pinholes in the line to the charcoal canister and in the top of the fuel pump.

My 1994 Chevy Suburban 1500 with a 5.7 (350) is still going strong with 268K miles. Once the family car its now my hauler Its on its first synthetic oil change right now, which I expect will keep it running longer.

My F550 camper has 360k and it is only a little older than 2. Driving to climbs 200+ days a year puts on the miles.

The Taco I hardly ever drive has 375k but I'm the third owner.

My Jeep Wrangler had 205,000 when I sold it. The speedo became intermittent at some point in the last couple of years, so it was probably more like 225,000.

I ran stock tires and didn't drive it too hard, plus I pulled normal, regular maintenance. I think a water pump went out once, but that was about it.

1992 Dodge 3/4 ton 5.9 Cummins 5 speed 582,000....spun a bearing in turbo at 120,000....new clutch, pressure plate & throw out bearing 280,000...about every 70'000 needed front axle bearings......more than 80% miles on highway....only used to haul a trailer or load in the bed.....

Since it has gotten away from Ferde trucks, my 02 Duramax has 304,000. It has original engine, trans, and both diffs. Also has the original front brake pads. I mainly use it to haul my shooting equip. around the USA to shooting matches. My old Mitsubishi that I drive daily back and forth to work has 284,000. It is still an excellent vehicle, but a customer just gave me a clean 2009 Toyota Corolla with 175,000 on it to replace the Lancer.
The Corolla has a blown head gasket that is getting repaired.

I've got 247,000 + on an '04 Silverado. Took it out of daily service a couple of years ago in order to buy another similar truck for tax reasons. Keep it hooked up to a boat so I can go fishing or duck hunting spur of the moment. Still going strong.

My first truck as a teenager was an old 87 sr5 toyoto 4x4. We sold it in '96 with 240k on it, I still see it on occasion but have never tried to rundown the owner to see how many miles are on it

Was in the Toyota dealership the other day kicking tires. They had an article of a guy with a 2008 Tacoma that had reached 1.2 million miles with the same tranny. The engine was replaced at 880K. The guy delivered nuclear medicine and used the vehicle as his transportation.

I have a 2006 Duramax with 132,000 miles. Years ago, I had a Toyota P/U with the 22RE engine. I don't think you could kill that engine.

It's hard to say how many miles are on my 71 GMC....when stuff wears out, it'll get replaced...unless it gets the frame bent, I imagine it might outlast fossil fuels...

I'm loving it.It has plenty of power and fuel mileage is about as good as can be expected. I CAN get 20 mpg hwy with a 4X4 Supercrew on the hwy if I keep the speed under 70. But most of the time it is just under 19 for me. I drove it from GA to Colorado to hunt 3rd season and got 18.8 on the way out. For unknown reasons was 17.9 on the way back. I drove 70-75 most of the way. I wasn't loaded heavy, but had a moderate load of camping/hunting gear including a generator and my wife. It had no trouble getting up mountain passes as high as 11,000'. Both 5th and 6th gears are OD on these trucks. I just locked out both and drove up the passes in 4th at 2000-2200 rpm and was able to maintain the speed limit.

I bought it used 3 years ago in May. I was on the fence about the 3.5 turbo, but after driving both settled on the 5.0. I was able to drive a 2014 with 17,000 miles on it off the lot for exactly the same money as an otherwise identical 2013 with the 3.5 and 27,000 miles on it. The 3.5 is a good engine that puts out a lot of torque at low rpm, but I just didn't need it. Or the extra maintenance required.

If you look at used Fords pay very close attention to the axle ratio and payload stickers on the drivers door. Ford is all over the place. Gear ratios range from 3.15 to 3.73. Payload is typically around 1600-1800 lbs for the crew cabs. But there are some out there with payloads as low as 1100 lbs. With either engine you could get a truck terribly under powered and unable to tow much. Mine has 3.55 gears and payload just under 1700 lbs. I'm rated to tow 7700 lbs,which is more than I'll ever tow.

Names not Jerry BTW. JMR are my initials, I go by my middle name, Marshall.

JMR, my F-150 work truck has the 5.0 and 3.55's love it, only 65k on it, hell still on the original Hankook's up frt makes great mileage and plenty of performance. I liked it so well in Oct of 2016 I bought a F-150 4wd Super cab with 8' box, yup 5.0 and 3.73's good mileage and plenty of power.. MB

I put 277,000 miles on my 2002 Chevy Silverado.
I rode that SOB hard and it was amazingly maintenance free.
Almost zero breakdowns aside from a couple of batteries and a driveshaft that I F'ed up.
My God, the animals that bloodied up the bed of that thing...😛

I just traded it in on a 2015 version...

Not a truck, but I’ve had two Ford engines go north of 300K with regular maintenance. Still going strong at trade in.
