135, and no probs here, but I really don't consider 135 'high' mileage.

210,000 + miles and no issues with the plugs... I changed out the stock plugs just after I bought the truck in 2001 with around 63,000 miles on it. I'm still on those same replacement plugs now and it's still giving me 15+ mpg average with no miss or shudder or any of the other issues that non MC plugs are supposed to deliver...

I'm regularly towing the TT in my sig and it's not skipped a beat.. The only stuff I've had to do to the engine is an alternator, 1 bad COP and a IAC. These all happened over 5 years ago too. Most recently was a new starter and a battery. Other then that, it's been regular maintenance stuff..
