Same here! Mine gets beat-up pretty badly. My thing is on and off-ramps...love to approach the red when getting on the freeway, and love trying to outrun cars on the freeway when I'm on the off-ramp
Mine just topped 70k and the only problems I've had are leaking waterpump and split A/C line (I think Ford did that when they replaced the w/p, but I can't prove it). Regular maintenance and she loves me for it. I recommend having your fuel system cleaned if you haven't done it. I had it done @ 50k or so and the thing drove like a brand new car!!
