I'm projected to do about 30k miles a year with mine. I bought it for that purpose. The only time I'll be driving the truck is to tow or carrying large loads.

Any chance this couple are forum members? I’d love to know the history of the car as I’m sure other forum members would as well.

Love these high milage threads. The low milage ones are sad, and should read " I bought this fantastic expensive car, so now I shall save it and preserve it for the next owner."

48 k on my '12. Adding to it quickly.

I agree. the service manager at my dealer has often commented that my car is one of the most trouble free cars he has seen, saying, they "rot" if they're not driven

I am now at 22K miles on my 2017. That's a little less than 10K/year (delivered in 2016) so I figure it should not need an engine rebuild for twenty years or so.

After 100,000 miles

Nothing broke/replaced out of the ordinary.
- 3 Change Over Valves (1 on heater controls, 2 on air box flaps)
- Dash vents fell apart. (broken clips) - found broken clips on floor - strange.
- Gas struts on hood and engine lid replaced
- Both triangle rubber door window seals (split/cracked)
- Windshield washer hose broke where it entered the hood
- One Horn died - had both replaced.
- Had a few interior trim panel clips break
- A few squeaks and rattles which were sorted

Maintenance wise:
- 6 sets of tires
- 16 oil changes
- Battery replaced 5 years old.
- PDCC bottle replacement and belt - performed by dealer.
- Brake fluid flushes - performed by dealer.
- All other maintenance performed by me.

Thing I'm surprised about:
- Still on the original rotors and pads
- All control arms are still in good shape.
