I believe that Jim S. is the reigning champion, with about 146K miles and very few problems. I'm at 87.6K, and have just gone through a spate of the normal wear item repairs, which although expensive, should keep the beast in good stead for a long time (tranny seals/gaskets, oil pan gasket, motor/tranny mounts, control arm bushings, shocks & struts) - note that some of this was preventative maintenance, the rest repairing worn items. At this time the only major known wear item that I haven't replaced is the DK's (and I'll wait till they go..... perhaps they'll do as good as Jim's!).
