TWELVE-THOUSAND MILES on mine...towed 7000lbs once. It's flawless performance leads me to beleive it is the stoutest transmission on the planet.

Badass trucks I posted there as dieseldog00. The P2 is awesome with that monster motor. I wonder if the F650 could tow a 5th wheel with that much lift...

i also forgot to mention that i've towed my rock crawler (i believe to be about a 6k load, rig and trailer) w/ my mp8 on 50%, and hammered down on the girl many times pulling onto highways and also just trying to see what the ole girl can do w/ a bit of extra weight and she's held up so far. granted, i don't do that very often. lol but when i'm towing, i'm usually pullin a gooseneck w/ 2 rigs on the trailer to an ORV park...but i usually drive like an old man then.

250k on my g56. Change oil every 50-75k. I run 1 qt of syn lucas then the rest atf +4. I wegh 23-26k often. Been a great tranny so far. Will tear it down next summer and do bearings and whatever else it needs.

Lost dmf clutch at 80k and went with Valair. Recently went to a napa clutch and I love it. Smooth. Will stay with napa clutch. Not a hard job to do anyway.
