Picked mine up late Feb. 2023. Got right at 25K on it now.

Premium Top Tier gas only. (Oh jeez. Here goes a thread hijack by somebody.:LOL:)
Handle my own oil changes. Castrol full synthetic with Wix XP filters. Changed at roughly every 6500 miles. Sort of depends on "needs an oil change. What are we doing this weekend?" kind of scheduling. Sometimes 6K, others have pushed towards 7K. Same with tire rotations. Some at 5K. Last one was almost 7500. Sometimes scheduling is a pain in the ass.

Zero complaints. Love the truck. Truly. Love the freaking truck. And yes, I do still occasionally go into the garage with my coffee, or a beer depending on time of day, simply to look at the blue beauty. Got busted by the warden recently. She opens the door to the garage, looks as me and says, "Are you out here looking at your truck?" With a grin on her face she then called me an idiot as she closed the door and left me standing there. With no response. :giggle:
You have serious issues. :crazy:?

I'm almost at 8k miles and going on 2 years since buying it new. I drive it, but we have 6 vehicles and this vehicle isn't always my first selection. I drive the sports cars more and my wife either drives her Maverick or our workhouse Jeep CRD.
If you ever move out of state, it will be a very sad day for your insurance broker. ?

I guess I don't understand. When I moved here, my USAA insurance cost went down.

Count your blessings. Rare to get a freaking break on insurance costs.

I recently moved two cars over to Hagerty and my insurance on those two vehicles are roughly what they were with USAA, but now I have an agreed upon value for them.

It’s not about cost. ? Just a light-hearted comment about the broker losing a good customer. Insurance brokers or agents are often only licensed to sell insurance in the state where they live or work. YMMV

Same response... My broker would still be the same.

Well, I love a good thread hijack. I recently switched my home and auto from nationwide to state farm. I know I may be able to save with someone even cheaper, but I've had good responses on claims with the 'top tier' companies, so to speak. Anyway, I changed because NW didn't cover the area where my retirement home is, and I have a few rentals in that area as well. By switching, I saved 50% on my total bill. My eyes popped out of my head when I saw the quote. My NW agent asked why I was changing, then came back, hat in hand, and said they could also quote for other companies as well. I declined, and said, maybe when these terms expire.

Oh I got it Duke. Bet he did too. But if memory serves @yamahaSHO recently relocated to Arkansas. No doubt leading to cheaper insurance versus his previous address.

Approaching 53k. Daily driver. Nary a problem except the damn rear window defrost coming off.
I really don't know if I want to service the transmission, as someone else already said, don't want to jinx it. If I put money into it and it dies anyway, it's just wasted money. If needs work at some point, it will get serviced anyway.

Yep still original trans. Just being mindful on it and getting the fluid changes at 50k miles.
Also I run syn blend oil with changes at 5k
Awesome! That is a really good counter to all the bad news on the transmissions.

2019 xlt. 76k miles. Transmission rebuild at 66k luckily only 250 bucks with ext warranty. Engine is solid. Only other thing is sway bar end links. Who knows I may get one more transmission for free under warranty. LOL.
