My VN64 Volvo had 2,315,000 plus a few when I sold it running perfectly. The frame had started cracking so it was retired to hauling produce in homestead Florida. I rolled rods and mains in it once. Motor was an 11.1 series 60 Detroit.

My 2003 Silverado Crew Cab 2500 HD 6.0 had 200K on it when I sold it to buy the truck I'm driving now before I retired. It still ran like a top and everything worked but it needed new body bushings and suspension from being someone's farm truck before I bought it... My son's 2000 Silverado 5.3 had 302K on it when he traded it in on a new GMC Sierra and it ran like a top also. Good maintenance makes a difference, but new engines are built to last a lot longer than the ones us old geezers grew up with....

I had a '98 F150 that had 187,000 on it when the odometer quit working. Sold it 7 years after that. It had to be getting close to 400,000 by the time I sold it. Still ran like it should. One tune up, the rest just regular maintenance.

In 2017 I had 345,000 on my 2004 Dakota 4x4 V8 and the engine was running fine, I never had any work done to it. I traded it in on my 2018 Colorado V6 ZR2 which needed a cam sensor at 70,000. It could have been $1500 but the dealer got GM to cover all but $287.00 even thought the coverage had run out.

272K on a 2011 Silverado 5.3, likes a quart or 2 of oil between changes as I never deleted the AFM system. Runs fine, with most of the original parts. Do the maintenance as needed.

I only have 203,000 on my 2001 S10 but, a guy I work with has a 2011 Silverado with 350,000 and climbing everyday. Transmission has been rebuilt and radiator replaced but, not much else. Motor hasn't had much of anything done to it.
