i have 2 04s, one with 245000, one with 52k, with good maintenance they will run a long time. i put in synthetic oil from day one, i got mine at dealership new and changed oil same day. i use parking brake from drive to neutral before park to take pressure of trans so i never had issue with weak shafts. only issue i have had is right hub went bad.(known problem).

Still drivable, Ain't it? ( Kidding) Sorry that had to happen.
 
'02 XLT with 136,000. Still drive it about 100 miles a week. Runs good, but a little beat up and has exhaust leak that needs to be looked at. Also ABS isn't working properly. Everything else works fine.
I want to get a newer one in better condition, some day.
 
2001 209,000 Bought New. No rust but Florida sun hurting the paint. Need driver leather seat cover replacements. Anyone got info on OEM or close to it replacement covers?
Here's a cheap solution, $25. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B019MEVSQ4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Almost $200 was out of my wheelhouse, and this fit fine, looked better than the tattered leather. Too bad the color doesn't match very well, but the truck is a bit of a beater at this point anyway.

Have a 2008 Sport Trac, with 162,000 miles on the ticker. Bought used, and the leather seats need some help. I am on my THIRD thermostat housing, which unfortunately is a know problem with the 4.0. Factory leather seat covers are still available from Ford, but at $300 a seat, I just cannot stomach that.

Stop spending money+time on junk plastic Factory\AfterMarket ThermoStat Housings,
& potentially overheating+damaging your engine when they crack+leak.
Get an Aluminum ThermoStat Housing; cost comparable to AfterMarket plastic & much less than Ford OEM.

With the right Lawyer..... looks like a new anything you want.
Yeah it looks promising but daughter has gone thru hell , two rods in left leg, two neck surgeries, broke wrist, headaches from concussion from hitting windshield. Airbags never deployed as front of truck other than hood never looked like it had been in accident! Was really unbelievable!
 
2007 ST Limited 4.6, 190K. Starts up fine, transmission shifts nicely.
Brother sold it to me cheap with 178k. Other then normal maintenance-Radiator, belt tensioner and idler pullies, O2 sensors.
 
240K, in California. The underside still looks new. I've only had it from 215k, but I'm changing the oil every 3000 with Motorcraft stuff, hope it keeps on going. I'm enthused by some of the high numbers people are quoting!
