Hey just curious how many miles you guys have on your stangs and the longest you have heard these engines last assuming it is well maintained. I just broke 120k the other day. bought it at about 110k if i remember right!
sorry if this is a re-post
you probebly just jinxed urself there lol j/k. well looks like there is a few of us with one ticking over 100k. and funny, im probebly gonna be buying a 85(i think) bronco 1. oh how i miss wheeling
Forgot to mention.. they last a long time - my 89 had 190k some miles on it when I sold it.. 4.6s typically go a long time (esp in the trucks, I've seen 2-300k miles at the shop)
my probe had 140,000 blue v6 mustang bought with 101,000 sold it at 133,000 miles on it and my current 02 gt bought with 99,000 its got like 105,000 on it. FYI these new fuel injected engines will last damn near forever if you take care of them. Back in the 60's and 70's a car was toast after 75,000 miles.
I've got just under 39K on my 07 v6. I've had it almost 3 years now though so I consider it fair. On a side note I had a guy trade in his 04 GT a while back with close to 160K and it was still in fighting form. Like they said, with proper care these fuel injected engines will just keep rolling.
thats very true. i dont buy anything else. tried that once. they broke down like nothin. i got my ex a 03 vw passat. blew the engine found a pontiac sunfire she had to have. got it (come to find out she cant drive a standard). either way broke down 2 days later. i was stuck drivin that thing while she had my expedition. she was un able to break that. sold it with 180k. my mustang only has 30k. point of fords lasting a life time. my dads 99 f250 super duty is comin up to the 400k mark been hit several times and is stillgoin. hes working oon hit 500k before he sells.
my 76 f-150 has just over 700,000 km on the odometer and around 20,000 on the 542 stroker, my stang has just over 210,000 on the clock but 2800 km on the motor,tranny
just hit 15k on my mazda 3... recently passed the 1yr anniversary as well.
