Just turned 9000 miles!

Bought my Mega Cab in February 2011 and turned 9000 miles today. I drive the wheels off this baby and other than one EGR light, it has performed flawlessly. The highway comfort in this thing is truly amazing

Slacker....




I got mine in Jan and have 14k on it. If I wouldnt have gotten hurt and been at home the last three weeks it would have over 16k. Factory warranties dont last me very long.

ZERO issues to date.

Gotta love these 4th gens!

13.5 months in mine....only 44K miles.

Had a u-joint go out and start vibrating at 42K....but other than that, only a couple minor inconveniences with gadgets in the cab. Still loving it....except for the brake controller....

Got my 2010 September 2, 2010. Went to Washington state for 8 weeks on gov't travel. Did not take my truck. It sat for 8 weeks. Came back and have racked up 3 round trips to Florida and driven all over Texas and Oklahoma. I left for Afghanistan last week of April and it just turned 24,000 miles in just 6 months!

yellowhemi have you seen an increase in mpg? I've seen 1.2 mpg increase so far.

I went over 10,000 yesterday and am hoping to see an mpg bump soon. My 5.9's never really saw a jump till they hit around 25,000 miles.

I just turned 12,000 on mine! And I've had it 18 months!!!

Too short a distance for commuting to and from work, 5.9 miles. It'd never warm up. Got a PT Cruiser for jumping around town.

Just about to turn 11,000 and now looking forward to the Smarty release for the 2011's. Want to try it out on that "S" setting as making monster power is of no interest to me anymore.
