My 96 has 160k, daughter's 95 has 170k, friend's 97 has 210k. All stock as far as I know. Mine and my daughter's has had the overflow's replaced. Mine has had lift pump replaced(just leaking).

214K on mostly stock. Torque converter disentegrated at 103K (before I knew about "better than stock" trans components) but other than one waterpump and a weeping seam on the radiator and one AC compressor clutch she is original. Timing has been bumped since about 150K but is still a virgin stock plate. 21 mpg average, can gross 18-20K without a strain, the heck with a new car payment.

My 95 has 216K and I have never had a problem with it UNTIL yesterday. It was kinda hard to believe that is was tore up.
Oh I either broke an input shaft or something inside the tranny itself. Didn't sound very nice when it exploded.
So technically it still purrs like a kitten, it is close to stock.

a friend of mine has a 97 with well over 1,000,000 miles on it. not sure how many. the speedo quit shortly after it turned over. ( i think it got tired of counting 
)it is on it's 3rd motor and 4th or 5th trans. (5 speed) he uses it for commercial hauling. we have a 94 shop truck at work with 314,000 miles and a 95 with 294,000 miles on it. my truck has 56,000 on it. it's currently getting a IP and FP installed. thank god for warranty.
