Top 3 that I've personally seen:

1) '96 F450 2wd.....484,000--was a 12' box van that hauled stuff for Salvation Army
2) '95 F350 4x4......397,000--belonged to my dad, still had the original HPOP, ICP sensor, IPR, injectors/o-rings, glow plugs and relay when he sold it. (note to all, change your stroker oil at 2,500 miles)
3) '95 F350 2wd.....311,000--a race car yanker.

246K, stock trans, stock CPS, replaced turbo cause I wanted to, and replaced the rear end cause I forgot to change the fluids. Expecting 400K on this engine, then we will see.

Assuming your talking to me, the PO had receipts of the oil changed at 80K, IIRC, and I blew it up at 230K. Did pretty good for that much neglect towing my BA hauler.

I plan on putting some big covers on the front and rear with drains so I can do more drain intervals. I expect to keep this truck for a LONG time.
