Well after 3 years and 5 months I hit 100k on the way to work this morning. A little report card since delivery.



One fuel tank sending unit 57k

One lift pump at 57k warrantied

One vp44 at 62k warrantied

One tail light bulb

The steering gear box top cap bolts have come loose twice but not in the last 50k

The stock mich ltx ms tires lasted 62 k but am sure they would have lasted another 20 k if it werent for my poor inflation based on the wear pattern.

Still on the original brake pads. Just rotated the tires last night and it looks like they will go another 20k based on current usage.

The auto trans is still working fine.



Have done all of my own maintenance. I run synthetics from front to rear since I got it except for the engine oil which I switched over at 15k.



Except for the above this truck has run flawlessly and beyond my expectations. I hope it continues as I plan on driving this truck until the wheels fall off then I will just replace them and drive it some more. I still get a grin every time I start it up (heck who am I kidding I still get a grin every time I see it). Got to go find a piece of wood to knock.
 
I just made 100K last Monday, after 4 years and 1 month.



Problems so far:



On 3rd lift pump #3

On 3rd track bar

Instrument panel went at 60K

AC evaporator went at 95K

Leaky oil pan gasket repaired under warranty at 99800
