I was getting my inner tie rod replaced and the guy at work who also has an 04' 5.4 STX starts telling me that his has 260,000 miles on it, it has never had any front end work done, it still has all original fluids in it and it threw its first code last week. He's not sure what the code it but he is pretty sure it has something to do with the spark plugs cause EVEN those are still the original ones! So basically he just changed his oil. Ill take a picture of it tomorrow when if he is there, it looks like King Kong picked his truck up and dropped it a couple times, I hope mine lasts longer than his cause I actually take care of mine.

Well, it has had ball joints, tie rods, alternator, battery, water pump and things like that replaced but the core of the engine is still the same. The way I see it, the things they have replaced or fixed are pretty much consumable parts anyways; like tires. Our work garage does regular service and maintenance on them.
