My 2006 F150 Lariat 4x4, after driving to and from The House of Failure (Reliant Stadium), is just over 2 miles shy of 100,000 miles. It'll be a fun drive to work tomorrow.

I've been pretty happy with the truck over the past 7 1/2 years.

Ignition wasn't on. I would be alarmed if it read that while the engine was running.

Kinda figured that. Fords can take it though.

I live in Michigan, so I'm used to it ... but your climate does sound very nice sir.

It's nice this time of year, but don't visit between June and September. We have four seasons here: Fall, Spring, Summer, and Hell (July and August).

Yea I can't do much hotter than 85 so I can't imagine what "hell" feels like.

My Ford truck has 226,000+ on it. Still runs fine. Regular Mobil 1 and Amsoil filters and transmission oil changes along with occasional axle oil changes have kept the girl in good shape. Replaced lower ball joints with greasable ones and she is good.
