I've got 2003 XLT, 4.0. Everything is orignal except rear diff, replaced under warranty. I've got a little over 230,000 miles on it. Just got it smogged and mechanic said it runs like a new truck. Last time I checked i got about 19 MPG on highway. I drive mostly highway, don't know for sure what city mileage is. Still runs great and is peppy, even w/265/75 16 on it. I'm knocking on wood right now lol

I have a 97 XLT 4x4 with a SOHC 4.0 in the low to mid 90k range. I let a buddy borrow so I'm not quite sure of the exact mileage. Bought with 48k on it 2001. No major problems as of yet. Needs a new exhaust since the last one has completely fallen off!!! Mostly stock except for 31" BFG A/T's
 






03 4.0 with 13,500 miles Top that!!

and no that is NOT a typo.
 












02 Limited 4x4 V8 w/117,000 miles and counting. Rebuilt trans, transfercase, leaking rear axle seal, screaming front wheel bearing, reverse sensors work here and there and needs a little TLC on the exterior. Otherwise, when I hit the gas and haul ass, she puts a smile on my face and makes the problems a distant memory:D
 






2005 xlt
4.0 v6
99,950 - will roll over 100k tomorrow. The longest I've ever kept a car, thus, the most miles I've ever had on a car.
 






























96 5.0 2 wheel drive. Just turned 200K. Runs great, Looked great till the daughter rear ended a car. Replaced front clip and radiator etc. Just could not part with it.
