DAMN! How do you drive it, any mods? I'm at 75,xxx which is still too high for my tastes.

How many parts have you replaced in that 200000?
What parts were they?

Dam, and I though my 90,000 miles was high. I have had to replace one window switch so far and I drive mine like it is stolen!

And I thought my 180,800 was a lot on my 4.0 - mine have been relatively trouble free. I did have a head gasket replaced, under warranty and before I had nitrous or the blower on it - blower has been on since 90,000 miles.
