put a lot of miles on a v6..need help
#11
You will be fine. I commute 45 miles one way every day (90 miles at least a day) and often am out seeing clients around metro Detroit. The Mustang has 202,300 on it right now. The Xcharger went on at 90,000 miles. It is a daily driver and weekend race car, running 12's still.
Keep up the maintenance and you will be fine. I was changing the oil with a blend every 5,000 miles. About every third oil change I send a sample to Blackstone Labs to be analyzed. They said to stretch it because I was changing it more often than needed and I'm up to 7,500 miles between changes now and the last test showed the sample could have gone further. Change the fuel filter every spring and the transmission fluid every spring.
The only reason I am selling the car now is because my wife worries with all the miles on it and with me driving around metro Detroit - plus the 2013 that I ordered has some nice new features (and gives me a fresh platform for mods!)
