Working on a 2001 with 159k
Had 1 inch of sludge under the valve covers when the rear timing chain guide failed.
Looks to have been poorly maintained. Put in a VERY clean motor for an 02 with 62k.
odo will turn 200k plus for sure

It's had a rash of troubles the last couple of years, but I drive allot of miles daily to work in PA/NY on dirt roads and hills and often haul heavy loads (abusively overloaded) both in the bed and on a trailer. It's really holding up well considering the abuse it gets. The washboard dirt roads throw the alignment out all the time, and steering/suspension parts are failing one after another. Needs brakes every 6-8 months. I replaced a full size 3/4 ton Dodge with the 02 ST to save on gas, but I do everything I did with the big truck. I'm quite sure if I find the time to get the old dodge back on the road and use it for the heavy hauling my little ST will stop having issues.

It had 4 miles on it when I test drove it and then bought it. I had to replace both front wheel bearings at 84,000 miles otherwise it has been nothing but regular maintenance. My BIL just put a 40 series FlowMaster on it with dual exhaust.
