I put 150k miles on the old Gen 1 v8 6.2 liter motor and it was still going strong. I have 40k miles on my Gen 2 and not sure it would make it so far trouble free. The turbo engines just by its nature will have more issues.

The ev stuff would be great if I could recharge it at my neighbors without them knowing, lol. Prius is ugly is all, some of the ev stuff looks just like ice brothers though. I guess we could start bugging people with Tesla's too, so they don't feel left out.

I putting my deposit down on the Hummer, so I can only handle so much of this current administration. Stop 401ks because those will tank, buy gold if you can, and just expect to keep taking it because it isn't coming back anytime soon.

Who has or had the highest mileage raptor eco boost (Gen 2 or gen3). For those with high mileage any major issues?
I've had four Raptors, all with over 100K miles (two with 150K miles). The front wheel bearings will require changeout around 100K. It is important to have your fuel injectors cleaned (hp and performance will be reduced). Some argue that this is not necessary but with 42yrs engineering (chemical and petroleum) I can guarantee you that ethanol isn't a friend to your injectors. There are numerous documented sites and studies to confirm the problems with ethanol and 87 octane fuel. Other than that, few if any problems. Hope this helps.

Correct - good post. I have never got a response from Ford when I ask if the V6 Twin Turbo was built specifically for 87 octane and what the anti-knock 93 octane will do?

The engine was designed for 93 octane. That is what the horsepower and torque ratings are based on. Anything less and it pulls timing, reducing power.
