From past posts:
You ran a tuner without head studs. You didn't install a coolant filter until after the oil cooler plugged. You run a 12" lift and you blew out a tranny hose and then the tranny failed - most likely problems were mod induced. You had a bad alternator and ran the truck while noticing starting issues - then the FICM failed. Not to even mention the unnecessary aftermarket intake.
So many things are self inflicted - many problems are avoidable.
Maybe we shouldn't have to watch these things so closely, but we do. Folks that know this up front can get a good reliable truck for reasonable dollars. This is proven. I can post links to almost ALL of the major forums where people talk about 300-400k miles as being achievable.
