100,000 (100K) Mile Club.
I am not there yet but should be this summer. My 2005 Mustang GT was my secondary car until my Escort ran into a deer. I commute 65 miles to work each day.
Just wanted to know if anyone as made it to 100,000 mile club. I am currently at 73K.

We aren't quite there yet either.. But. she's got 75k miles on her at 28 months..
So far so good.. a few DTE FLI low errors, two blown tail light bulbs and I just replaced the 2nd set of tires (take offs)..
I'm about the change the rear brakes for the first time.. the fuel filter again and the diff/manual trans fluid and its about time for plugs.
Its picked up a few rattles (suspension), but thats to be expected since the daily commute has 4 miles of dirt road (80 mile round trip commute per day)..
edit: 06 v6 manual transmission

Very good!!!
1. I have a local mechanic do all my oil changes.
2. I had the air filter changed once.
3. I had the the emergency parking brake cables changed once.
4. The gas tank used to only fill up half way in the winter but this problem went away after I had my brake cables replaced by a Ford dealership. I believe the dealership may of fixed my gas tank but they tell me they could not fix my gas tank. Either way the gas tank problem is gone and I was not charged for the fix.
About 2 years ago, I swung the rear end of my car around twice on some ice getting on the freeway. The passenger front bumper hit a cement barrier. Only $5000 plus in demage which my insurance paid after the $500 detuctable. I bought snow tires right after the incident. I still love my car.

wow.. only changed the air filter once.. I change ours about every 3 months (its usually getting pretty dirty by then)...
Oil change used to be every 5 weeks or so.. Now I do it every 8 weeks (6k miles or so) using mobile 1 w/ motorcraft filters.

At two years and four months I'm at 6,500 miles so it will be a while before I can add much to this thread, but I do like hearing how well they are holding up at that milage. Great thread!

i'm at 60k and seems to be holding up pretty good... had a couple freak outs with the gauge. had to replace rear tires...i lived on a dirt road also and developed a few rattles... they really don't bother me unless it goes from Cold to Hot and expands the plastic... i change the oil myself and its about time to change my transmission fluid.
