What do you consider high mileage these days? My old 7.3 has had nothing but bolt accessories changed. It’s just about broke in.

If I’m buying, nothing over 50k, because I like to keep vehicles until they fall apart, so I want low so I can get a lot out of them.

Mileage doesn't bother me as long as I know the maintenance record and how hard it was used/abused.... 2cents

My body is high mileage, abused horribly, with a poor maintenance record....I wish I had listen better to my elders....

84 F150 inline 6 with 3 on the tree.

My dad bought it new. I bought it from him.

I sold it with 430,000 miles. I did have to put a rebuilt engine in at 400,000.

My truck isn’t “high mileage” at 128,000, but she’s been beat on pretty good. That being said, this is my first truck that hasn’t required a transmission or major engine work with less than 70,000 miles.

The BFGs are starting to pick up a hell of a hum at various speeds. Unless you’re a stickler about rotating, which I’m not, the older F-250s eat tires.

Exactly 30k on them.

And to totally derail the thread, the mud terrains seem to be as puncture resistant as the TA/KO2s and are a beast in the mud. I’m actually getting better wear out of the MT.

I don't think of high mileage until 150,000 most vehicles will make that with if they're maintained.


for every stereotype there's a prototype don't be the prototype

2012 Raptor 165k father in law bought it new I bought it at 150k all Highway miles and he is a stickler about maintenance so I’m not worried about it.

Going that speed you're gonna hit 400k pretty quick.

My '01 Silverado 6.0 has 245k on it. It was a kid hauler for 6 years though.

Presumptuous, I’ve been around a while. By all means, keep assuming.

170k miles on my 2010 F-150 4x4. No major repairs except for ball joints.

139k on my 2001 7.3. Obviously not a daily driver. Runs great and will never sell it.

Had a friend with over 1,000,000 miles his estimate, on a 2000 F250. The odometer had broken at 780,000 something and they continued to drive it for years. Never even had a water pump. Admittedly it had a few issues when a hand drove it thru some high water and blew it up.

Almost bought those today. They were the same price as the AT’s I bought. It was the new MK3’s. I just can’t justify a MT for everyday driving. And my truck is banned from leaving camp now

I have those on my Jeep Wrangler. At 21,000 miles they are louder than when new. I would think it would be the other way around. And I rotate them at 5,000 miles and they just get louder.

Just wait. But they are awesome tires. I just hit the +++ on my radio remote. That covers it.
