Hit 200,000k
 

Hit 200,000 on my Excursion V10 not a single engine or trans problem since I bought it new. If anyone is intersted in one of these trucks do not hesitate they are bullet proof!

Re: Hit 200,000k
 

90% of those miles are towing!

Re: Hit 200,000k
 

270 ... what kind of mileage towing heavy load ....and also just normal around town stuff.

Re: Hit 200,000k
 

I get 9.5-10.5mpg hauling the two car loaded 10-12k
10.5-11.5mpg one car loaded 6.5k
14.5 is my best with no trailer on the hwy.
10-12mpg city
Best part is I get to write off all the gas.

I have a 93 saturn with 202,400 miles :D
But I'd rather have a chevelle :drink:

Re: Hit 200,000k
 

yeah a chevelle with the gas millage of your saturn, but then again how much fun would that be. if i had a muscle car i think i would purposely see how much gas i could go through!

Re: Hit 200,000k
 

I have to laugh everyone rips on the V-10s and you don't hear anything bad about them other than they are a little hard on gas,I was very hesitant when I bought mine, but I really like it.

Jim-
I look at your site every day...
Just waiting for a 68-69 Camaro to come along.... :drink:

I told you I wouldn't buy a car until I talked to you....

Hey Tim,
I should have a bunch of new stuff next week. Hopefully I get a couple first gen. Camaro's. I'll let you know what I get.

Burnsmazz,
You're right about the V10's not getting the credit they deserve. They are great motors. Tons of pulling power and you can't kill em. I know of a few with 400- 500k still going strong.

Re: Hit 200,000k
 

I have 210,000 on my 94 f-250 4x4 IDI turbo diesel!! Runs great!!!

Re: Hit 200,000k
 

I only have 42k on my 2000 powerstroke :cool:

Tim,
I just picked up a 68 Camaro. Check it out!

Re: Hit 200,000k
 

I have one that blew the spark plug out of the head at 72K. $1500 repair and they said there are 9 more cylinders to go. Ford said it was nothing I did. This has been a big problem with the V10's.

Re: Hit 200,000k
 

Looks like you had to back up to get that number, it's still in reverse :drink:

Congrats

Re: Hit 200,000k
 

I have a 2001 F-350 V-10 it's only got 42k on it but I have never done anything but change the oil???? BZ

Re: Hit 200,000k
 

:eek: :eek:

HOLY CRAP! That's some rough news to hear! For $13,500 you could pick up a PSD out of a wreck.

Re: Hit 200,000k
 

They've adressed those problems on the new V-10's,plus in 05 they went to 3 valve heads about 45 more horse and over 50ft lbs. more torque.

Re: Hit 200,000k
 

Wobble,
Actually it turned 200,000 just as I pulled in my Garage. It was very strange. :et: I didn't even drive out of my way to get it to flip before I got home. I took the pic. the next day when I was backing out(R). I also reset the trip to add more 000 to the pic.
Never had any spark plug issue's. I have only changed them once.
Towing it gets the same gas mileage as my powerstroke dually. Not towing the diesel gets better mileage.The dually does have 410's and the X has 373's. Power is pretty equal. The V10 likes the higher RPM's and the diesel is all down low.

Re: Hit 200,000k
 

Thats a nice 72 on your site :drink:

Re: Hit 200,000k
