250K miles and still growing strong
Only vehicle I've bought new (usually buy slightly used to avoid the steep depreciation driving it off lot) and it has been well worth it. Only major expense was replacing the spark plugs. Took it to the dealer and it cost $900. Had the second set installed recently at $250K and he was able to complete the work for $400. Very reliable vehicle and the look of it still isn't outdated after 15 years.

Best truck ever owned
Right now my truck has almost 300,000 miles and I can't say enough good things about it. It has held up so well in basically every aspect. Truck definetly does not drive like a high mileage vehicle. I got the truck with a blown up motor and it still drove! Even with a blown motor! Put rebuilt motor in now truck is amazing. Best vehicle I've ever driven in super deep snow. It will not get stuck, even when I try getting it stuck. I towed with this truck like a dream and it's great. Even trailerling with deep snow is easy. Truck has never broke down on me or previous owner. Love it!

Great Truck
Bought the truck in January 2004 when there weren't many on the road. 120,000 miles later and the only two things on the entire truck that have broke was the passenger side window motor and the grommet on the center shift linkage. Unbelievable low maintenance truck. Been using mobile one full synthetic oil since it was a baby and Fram filters. Two sets of brakes and 3 sets of tires later the truck is perfect. Everything in the truck still works even those back up sensors. Put a leveling kit on it when it was new and thats it. Great truck, not looking forward to changing the plugs though, that maybe a big problem due to the issue with the 5.4 and the spark plugs breaking off.
SO FAR SO GOOD
I love this truck, and with some personnal touches, its looking GOOD!! Surpisingly, I get about 17-18 mpg (city), and 19 to 20(hwy). My best was 21 mpg on the hwy, not bad. Only problem I had so far was a bad window motor, at $300 plus labor.. Other then that this truck has been too sweet.
