Big 5,818 miles on my 2022 (most mileage from shuffling out of driveway onto street and back), then my 1.6 miles-each-way dump runs. I have taken it on a few longer trips, twice around Mount Washington (6-7 hour Sunday drive type thing), and once to Vermont and Upper State New York. Apart from that it's a few 1-3 hour trips for kayaking in the summer.
BUT ... by golly, it's had two oil changes! And dummy me thought Ford Service at local dealer had my best interest in mind when they suggested The Works with engine and cabin air filters at 3K miles! D'oh!
From now on I'll do my free annual oil change with them (side "perk" from their extended warranty) BUT ... I'll save the $10 they charge on tire rotations and do the rest myself ...
No problems yet, some rough shifting when it's cold out and I haven't let it run a minute. I did have that "mystery no start" happen one time that fixed itself in 20-30 seconds. I also use a battery tender religiously, so knock on wood! =)
oops or self-extracting tranny for easy servicing
Transmission fell out the bottom of the bus while it turned into the terminal

And yes, his morning I will be using those middle tie down hooks that I bought.
