While driving to work I used up the last 2 mi. and rolled into the lot right on the button.
The engine is driven hard daily and it has yet to have a problem. Most issues were w/the electrical and were easily fixed (plugs, coil pack, alt). Regular oil changes of Mobil1 Synth every 3k, running some cleaners through every so often and a Seafoam cleaning back in October have her running like a champ still.
My tranny on the other hand....oof. I think I experienced some slippage yesterday coming off a red light.

Better hurry and get your recall fuel pump replaced.

ive got 150k or so and ive only really had trans problems(atx). but a year of autox didnt help it any with all the miles on it. Had to change an axle but again autox+miles. had the normal brakes(still on original rotors and theyve got life in them still), plugs, coil, fuel pump

I just hit 60k over the weekend. same here, tranny's starting to slip. suspension parts have failed like mad [but I think my next round of upgrades will take care of that], but the engine is still the same beast it was the day I first drove it home.

I turned over 70k 2 days ago. I almost cried but the good part is, as stated before, I can't even tell. Thank you Duratec.

hey, im at double that mileage. except for a couple of bum fuel pumps, everything has been normal wear (brakes, tires, a relay here and there, a couple of struts). Drive her nice and she will last a long time.

126k on mine, but its been stuck on that for over 4 months now. Ran like a champ before the accident, running a 15.8 in the 1/4 with malfunctioning IMRC's, OEM plugs and wires, and 126k miles worth of carbon in the manifolds. I can't wait to see how it runs now that I've got all that stuff straightened up.

I'm around 200 miles short of 57 grand. This is a damn good motor if you maintain it.
Yeah, 'bout that trans... I haven't jad any problems yet.
The front suspension's being a pain though.
