I don't know how many miles are on my former 1998 V8 AWD EB. I traded it for a 2014 Escape AWD 2.0 Ecoboost. Just turned 1,700 miles today :)

HOLY COW!!! Mine is about to turn over to 190,000; daily driver and no rebuilds - just regular maintenance items.:salute:
 






My 2005 has about 323,450 on it right now. My engine went in March at 299,798. Replaced it and put about 23,500 on it already. As you can see I do a LOT driving. The only real problems that I seem to have are the bearings and the blend door. I have replaced the bearings in each wheel, 2x already and getting set to do it again. My blend door originally went in November 2010. I paid $978 to have it replaced, but it only lasted until the end of April 2011. My brother and I replaced it in August of 2011 (with Big Rondo's help from here) and it's just starting to go again. I've been pretty neglectful with the tuneups though. Did my first 1 at about 190,000 and haven't done it since. Don't ask why, I don't know. But she starts faithfully every day, without any problems. The only problem I seem to have is with the struts. I replaced the original struts in February with Strutteks. They don't seem to work for me like they do for everyone else on here. I don't feel like my truck hugs the curves or grips the road like she used to. I'm looking into replacing them before winter kicks in with the original Motorcrafts if I can find someplace to buy them, other than at Fordparts.com
 






Correction, I was off 10,000 miles

58,839 today, 1999 Mounty 5.0 with every option except alloys, and 4/AWD. Bought for $100 from my awesome neighbor!!
 






243k miles. All orignial bought it last year for $1500 bucks when it had 223k.
 






My 2000 v8 2wd has 254000. No rebuild of any driveline components. The most expensive repair I've made was the ball joints. Other than that it's just been little thing here and there. Still gets 18mpg in the city and 20 on the highway
 






Bought in 2010 with 77,500kms (48,160 miles), just hit 150,000kms (93,200 miles) last week.

2000 monty has 207,000 just bought it, v8 does not leak or make any noise these have to be the best sb ford ever made I'm satisfied to give up some mileage for such a great motor. I'm putting another in a early bronco they are cheap for now but it will not last as the supply is drying out, a lot of them were destoryed with the cash for clunkers program
