Got a friend with 421 on his 89.

 

[Rattler]

158,000 on my 99 and 304,000 on my son's 92. Randy

 

[DWeiler]

Only 19k on mine,drive a beater to work,but i have logged 400000+miles driving Ford company vehicles(7. 3 diesels). ----Oh yes its taken 2 of them to reach that mark,and there pretty tired by about 200k. The boss is talking new trucks soon,but they always go with the CHEAPEST,not the BEST, i keep telling him to buy the Cummins but hey sitting behind that desk all day---he know best. DW

 

[Turbo Tim 1]

180,000 on the 93 164,100 on the 01 right now and less than 2,000 on the 06, I plan on keeping the 01 for a long time so we'll see what happens for mileage.

200,000 on my '98 24v. original auto, and rear brakes

 

[KCJackson]

As noted below, the 96 checked out with almost 127K on the clock. The 05 is at 35,462 this very minute.

i am fairly new to mine, bought it 15 months ago with 304k miles and am about to roll over 318k, would be more but it's not my primary ride

 

[Diesel Dummie]

02 has 35K on it.

 

[CumminsPower98]

[DWeiler]

435,000kms on my 98. 5 original vp-44,5 lps. original53 block.

WOW thats got to be close or is a record on the TDR with an original Vp-whats the secret if any? DW

 

[DBrickel]

Just turned over 200000k a few weeks ago. Very encuraging to see the 400000+ guys. Mines still a baby

 

[FourBarR]

No big secret on the vp-44. no power increases over stock, 4 to 6 oz of mmo and 4 oz of howes meaner in every tank. fuel filter fleetgard changed at 12000k. fuel pressure gauge to monitor pressure, lift pump changed when pressure less than 8 psi pre filter. this is one of the early vp-44s which does not have any of the improvements. Truck is a daily driver and only hauls my 10x6 cargo trailer,about 3000lbs.

 

[JApol]

Mine just turned 30K on the way to work in 16 months. Got it with 8.

 

[RollOver_Pete]

Just turned 37000 on my 06. Bought it new in april with 130 showing.

 

[tom sweeney]

well,even with 215k+... i'm STILL on my original VP44... . . tom

 

[Vaughn MacKenzie]

I bought my first CTD soon after joining TDR, a '98. 5 in Oct. 1999. Since then I have logged:



10500 on my '98 (traded March '00 for my '01 HO)

87700 on my '01 (traded March '03 for my '03 HO)

34000 on my '03 (sold Aug. '04, now owned by Maverick)

49200 on my '96 (currently own)

15600 on my '98 (currently own)

197,000 TOTAL in 7yrs 2 mos. That's 27,488 miles a year, an average that has varied very little from year to year since 1999.
