    272k miles and starting to see it

    5.3 died at 235k. Replaced with ls6. Not bad for spraying a 175 shot on that 5.3 many, many times
    Tranny, 1st one at 40k. 2nd at 230k not has a Jerry's built 4l65
    Complete rear end rebuild at 140k
    Passenger side door lock motor 80k
    Brake master cylinder 160k
    Rear shocks replaced at 150k
    Harmonic balancer died at 272k
    EGR replaced when the truck caught fire
    What else?
    Power steering pump is starting to to get wet around the seal.
    I guess I can't complain but I am scared many more repairs are coming. Anyone else in the high mileage club?
    just a tow package

    Not as high as you guys but:

    1999 RCSB 118K, blown tranny due to lift and heavy foot, replaced both rocker panels due to road salt

    2004 ECSB 114K, just had the rear end bearings go out

    This is why we should all buy foreign trucks! They last forever.......Bwhahahahahahahahahahahaah

    Just rolled 225k. Had the rear end replaced at 150k. Did the shocks yesterday. Ordered headers yesterday because one of the cats is stopped up, but no other problems other than that!
