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.

 

How has the car held up so far with that many miles on it??

 

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

I've got 18k on my 05

 

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.

well, you do have the dirt road, lol

 

100,000 miles?

At 3,000 miles / year, I suppose I will have to let you know in about 30 years.

But this is a good thread to see how these cars are holding up...

 

'06 bought 12/05 checking in here, to date i have 42,9xx miles and my work commute 86 mi round trip daily, so far so good, almost hitting the halfway mark.

 

Thats good to hear she is still going strong at 73k. I'm with red454, i'll let you know when I hit 100k in about 20-30 years or so

 

78k and change. only changed 5 fuel filters 15 oil changes 1 airfilter (K&N)
thunking in front end battery issue...both waiting on 95K to get fixed
rear cluch packs replaced at 20k. hit by Dr in rt front fender, deleted antenna.

 

about to hit 70k....had it since dec '04.

 

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.

 

i've got 10,000 on my 2008. Not too long for me now.

 

I have 12K on my 05. Only driven on weekends in good weather. I live in Chicago so do the math.

 

I'm glad to hear that as these cars pile the miles on, there don't seem to be any major problems. I've only got 13,xxx on my 07, but I plan on keeping this car for a long time.

 

I will have had mine for three years this April. I've got 34,000 and no problems. I hope it stays that way because I'm planning on keeping her for a long time.

 

Dude! you need to drive your car I have driven my car to work 3 times and I have 11,500+. I love driving it any bright sunny day Last time I washed my car was oct 07.

 

October???
