My '13 3.5EB F-150 is at 102,733 miles. I'd imagine my pre-aluminium bodied truck weighs more than this Raptor. And though it may be true that I don't thrash mine on a regular basis, but it has seen it's fair share of time treking through the Rocky mountains many trails.

Needed fresh plugs at 100k, but other than that it runs like new. I will be swapping on new turbos at 150k though. I'll have the heads removed and intake valves "walnut washed" then as well, just to be safe.
