just thought it would be cool to hear what some of yalls mileages are on yalls trucks. and even previous trucks mileage.


92 Flareside: 308,xxx miles..
88 F150 (when sold): 156k miles
82 F100 (when sold): 55k miles

I dunno. Speedo cable broke 4 years ago. I replaced it a few months ago and the replacement snapped in 5 minutes. I think it happens because of how it has to be routed around my shifter. Doesn't give it enough slack I guess.

bout how many miles you think its got?

316,000 something. Still doesn't use oil.

Beats me because it is on the third engine. I got it with a 1971 Mustang engine in it and I put a rebuilt in so your guess is as good as mine, but when I got it the odometer say 17,xxx. So it could have been 117k, 217k....

33,000 for the F100.



Actual:
189,000 on the F100
193,000 on the old Ranger.

mines on its second, first 220k miles on the original 302. swapped in a 150k mile 351W, and it now has 240k on this 351W

Uh, 125k I think...

163K............

160K on the '95. 5.0 was replaced with a new motor at right over 100K (previous owner was unaware of an oil leak and ran it dry). Got 232,000 out of the White '93 before I sold it- original engine and transmission, everything worked, A/C even still blew cold.

F-150: 122,xxx
F-250: 93,xxx
F-350: 210,xxx
K2500: 137,xxx

Just for kicks...
1990 Tempo: 167,xxx
1989 Tempo: 130,xxx

All trucks and Tempos are all original, except the '150 which has a new motor.

'97 Ranger shows right around 274 on the clock. Speedo/odo have read ~17% high since I had the transmission replaced at 221k, so by my math that's just over 266k miles, on the original engine.

The '09 is closing in on 14k.

2010 F150

10,538 miles ... in 2 months

Thunder resumes dead at 230k
Red has 164k on the clock, but 40k on the engine and 20k since the restore.
Bronco has 151k on the clock, but has a 93k 400 swapped in.

Hey Ben,I probably missed the thread,but what happened to Thunder?

Right around 158k on my stupid duty now.

Bronco I have no idea, but less than 1k on the new motor. Body frame are probably 100's of thousands.

The X has 150,000
86 ranger 175k broke frame into still running ok
85 Ranger 65k restoring it
79 F150 389k on two engines, orignial transmission
77 F150 150k still run great body rusted away
72 120k on a rebuilt totaled it
Don't remember the others

Spun a bearing...and somewhere in the last couple months of sitting, not getting any fuel to the fuel rail...pumps are working though.
