In my opinion the best 2 engines ever to wear the blue oval,
the are both beasts, and I am sure there are many past 250k, I have a 300 that fits the bill,
but we all know the about the 6.

If Ford has a lot of trucks out there, even 5% of the trucks hitting 250,000 miles could give them the record. Now, if they had said largest percentage of trucks on the road over ... , that would have been better. We could just as easily show Ford also has the largest number of vehicles that have been scrapped. Look at all the vehicles they have produced.
