As a point of note on Ford's and high milage, my dad's 99 E-250 van, with a V-6 currently has over 365,000 miles, with no major problems. So yes, Ford's can last.


I know exactly how that is. My dad used to run Ari Freight across the country in a '95 E-150 Cargo Van, with a 4.9 straight 6. He just recently sold it for like $1,000. He had close to 600,000 miles on it. He went thru altenators like mad tho(I hate Advanced Auto Parts!), one rear end, and repolace the oul pump for the hell of it, oh yeah and add a fuel pump to the list.

So fords are built very well.

Unfortunately tho, Ford quit building the 4.9 straight 6 because it lasted so long.
