Just curious about how many miles members have on their 2.5 Duratec V6 before it is ready for a rebuild.

I just purchased a 95 Duratec Contour with 95,000 miles.
Changed the plugs, wires, fluids and filters and it runs great!

Since I have never owned a Duratec, I'm curious to see what kind of mileage I can expect out of it with proper maintenance.
