My '03 2500 just turned 172000. The only thing under the hood that has worn out is one alternator and one A/C compressor. I'm hoping for 250k, wish me luck.

 

My '03 just rolled up 102K and runs like a top. However, since I only put about 4K/yr on it, I'd guess it might take a while to get to 180K.

 

31k on my 05 4.7, id like to say ima keep till 100k, or hell even 50k, but i drove a cummins today at work and fell in love. Im goin diesel asap, even if though ima take a big hit on my current ride.

 

Got 147k miles on my 02 and still runnin great..had to rebuild tranny at 100k tho..but i will drive it til it dies..hopin to get 200k

 

I got 57k on my 05 4.7. No issues yet. knock on wood. I will keep it for a while. If I do get a new truck I will sell off the lift and go back to stock height.

 

my '03 has 42,000, but i add 14,000 a year to it. guy i bought it from hardly ever drove it, bout it in aug of '08 with 27,000 on the clock.

 

if treated right and maintained properly i think it could last a long time im real **** about takin care of my vehicles so i shouldnt have any real bad probs i hope....maybe we should think about a tech sticky for the 4.7l just to have all knowledge in there to keep ppl aware of the dnagers of what not to do and help other with what to do cause there are alot of us that have these problematic engines....just a thought HAMMER? ill control if you do it i got control on my lowered one....even though it gets ot here and there and i gotta correct em.....

 

What maintenance should be done to a 4.7 other than fluids, spark plugs, air filter, and pvc?
