I would caution people with 3V F-150/expeditions. If the previous owner didn't change the oil routinely ( which most people dont) the engine won't last. I've known a bunch of 3V owners and a bunch of blown engines. Mine runs well but always maintained. You can hear the ones while running that were not maintained. 7k to replace a 3V.

No way that you still have the original front brakes at 219k miles. Do you coast to a complete stop from 1/2 mile away or jump out and stop it from rolling so you keep having to buy new sneakers? 😂 Also, you might still have the factory shocks, but they’re surely working out by now and you’d have a better ride with replacements. Oh, wait. You said filters too. Oil, air, and tranny? 🤦‍♂️

[@feral4813]

There seems to be a lot of older trucks still in use in my area. Most are work trucks, so that should tell you something about how they hold up. The new ones are cheap built crap.

[@sethlivingston6427]

sold my 2007 silverado with 275 on it still running strong, routine maintainance

[@westabsupplyebay4093]

There's a distinct Chevy 1500 truck that I see often where I live, from 1992 and still chugging along just fine.

[@Salvation4DJews]

I pulled a V10 4wd Ford out of the ditch with my 2003 Silverado 2wd limited slip. After many years and 160,000 miles of abuse, I asked my mechanic to check the U-joints. He gets up underneath looks at em and says, they are like new because the aluminum drive shaft absorbs the torque shock. Brakes, tires, and oil, oh and rear axle seals. THAT"S IT!

[@glennredwine289]

I've got a '95 Dodge Dakota Magnum 3.9L V6 with 184K miles & 5 spd . i did the maintenance meticulously &it is running great, still has lots of punch and getting 21+ mpg on the road as long as I don't use the AC.

[@supergirl109]

I like how he mentions and shows the vehicles overall about them being good high mileage trucks/cars. I own one of those models and am so glad to hear it.

[@russg9371]

My 92 Chevy is still kicking strong with it's 4.3

[@johnfink9020]

Yeah, 190k miles and yall still want $18k for em.

[@karlschauff7989]

Yeah because delusional fools have been suckered into thinking it's worth it because they're supposedly million mile trucks. They will have a reality call when they suddenly have to fix some stuff in those engines. Particularly the 2GR and 3UR.

[@Glipsnarp]

Any Chevy with a vortec engine are bullet proof. Most of them make it 500,000km +

[@PaulRN209]

My 99 Yukon has 232k miles on it and still inadvertently spins tires at stop signs. The 350 Vortec's are just beautiful engines.

The older Rangers are indestructible. Mine's going on 300k thanks to Amzoil.

My 2003 F-150 supercrew with the 4.6 Triton V8 has 299,457 miles and still runs great.

[@ralphlazio505]

@yellowjacket - Yeah. 2000 Expedition. 5.4 Triton. 375k. Mobil 1 synthetic always. Motorcraft plugs every 90k. Normal wear and tare maintenance. Purrs nice, quiet and smooth. Smogs with flying colors. Still 18 mpg on the highway. Black exterior and grey interior upholstery holding up amazing. I wish it was 4WD, but it’s been 👍🏼 great.

[@americanmade9002]

I had a 2003 vortex v-8 Chevy that I sold with 248,000 miles on it and I only changed the oil! The kid who bought it still is driving it

[@buildurtruckurway9118]

Chevrolet trucks are hands down the most reliable pickups. The older 350 and 305s were perfect especially when they came out with the 5.7 vortec. The newer LS based 4.8 5.3 and 6.0 are the best engines ever out in a truck. I’ve seen 4.8s and 6.0s with over 650000kms that still run like new. My last truck was a 2000 Silverado with a built 5.3 and it had 590000kms before it I swamped it mudding and it threw a rod. (Hydro locked) Now I drive an 07 classic 3500 with a 6.0 put over 100000k on the truck with zero issues other that fuel costs.

My '98 Z71 was awesome! I wish I had never traded it in for my '06 GMC 3500.

Early 2000s and previous silverados are amazing trucks will get you anywhere you need with everything you need

I drive a 93 Chevy 1500 with 180,000 still running strong. And a 91 chevy s10 2.5, 4 cyl with 140,000 miles still got alot more to go.

Scotty: Never buy GM, they've got the worst engines. Scotty: GM has good V8's, so get those if you want a cheap vehicle.

[@droma2366]

now i dont feel so bad looking at 185k mile tundras

I would pick one up in a heartbeat. 185k is still a baby in terms of mileage if taken care of properly.

[@steelfiore163]

99-03 Ford 7.3L diesels are common with over 500k miles. Some over 1M miles.

My 2003 Chevy 1500 has 200k miles and runs like a champ. Most reliable vehicle I’ve ever owned. Needs all new suspension though.

[@Turbo_The_Femboy_Fox]

Can confirm that the old Vortecs are reliable AF.

[@YaOkay69]

There’s a KZbin video of the top largest Mechanic Shops in America, all were asked which truck brand breaks down the most often. They all said Ford, then GM, Then Ram.

[@benjaminhoff5004]

The new trucks are to sell to fleets and suckers. Plus, they are so unnecessarily tall to appeal to the "rugged" market, especially the new frontier. Went from a commercial truck to an outdoorsman's accessory. The run of the OBS Chevy '87 to '02 was peak alongside Ford's attempts to overtake it, though I wouldn't be caught dead driving a Ford unless it was a gift, can't complain about free. Nissan, Toyota were making some pretty bulletproof trucks also but hadn't quite figured out the American truck buyer yet.

[@tylervance0146]

I heard that for Chevy , the 4.3 v6 vortec from 2014 on is the only decent modern engine that'll last a decent amount of time without issue

[@DownLowRecka]

02 suburban just about to break 300k with original drivetrain. Still runs good too, a little weak but always starts

[@Pawnsylvania]

The 2.7 Ecoboost is a pretty damn good engine from everything I’ve seen. A lot of them running with around 200,000 miles with no major issues.
