240,000 miles - 2007 Tundra DC 5.7 4x4 4.30 gears. Bought the truck stock in 2017 with 109k miles. In 2018 at 134k miles, I added 4.5" Fabtech Lift up front, 1.5" Icon spring kit rear (no spacers), Ride Rite air bags and 35" tires. Daily driver. I tow a 5k toy hauler 3,000 miles a year across West Virginia/VA mountains. Replaced starter (2018), water pump & radiator (after a dealer suggested flush - I told the rep it will probably make the water pump seals leak - 2 weeks later had a weep), rear end 3rd member- bearings, ring and pinion housing in 2018 after crossing flooded roads and water got into the case ruining the gears/pinion seal over a few thousand miles before I figured it out. rear wheel bearings (180k miles), Adams extreme duty driveshaft - chasing harmonics - stock shaft was probably fine but I had been jumping (<1'-2' jumps) the truck some, front wheel bearings (200k miles), used front differential due to possible spider gear breakage due to 4x4 on rock surface at full lock - was making popping noise, 1 additional rear wheel bearing (230k miles - maybe due to towing and 35" tires). Switched to 33" tires (from 35") at 235k miles to improve towing over the mountains. If I'd have known all that I would replace I would have bought a currie 9" rear end and re-geared the truck with 4.88s, but these repairs/events were happening over a few years. I guess I've been a little hard on it but it still runs, looks, and drives great. Love it.

A guy I work with has a 2wd 08 double cab that he uses for delivery. He has 195,000 miles on it with zero problems. Runs it hard, wants to get at least 300,000 miles out of it before he trades it in. He also has a 2010 duramax with over 200,000 miles that has had a few problems with the emission system.
I have a 2011 tundra DC with a 4.6 with 200k. No problems as of yet.

2010 SLS 5.7 with 199,980 on it now.
I still put it in Beast Mode and play with the wife's truck. Piss's her off but it's a lot funner than my Duramax.
Only problem has been one of the Coil packs had to be replaced. $75 along with the oil, fuel, etc maintenance stuff isn't bad in my opinion.
Is it still strong as nearly quarter million miiles ago? I don't know. But it runs and I took on and kicked the shit out of a mustang on I10 not long ago.........
