The question shouldn't be "who has the highest" it should be "how have you achieved the highest"... :bows:

What oil, how often between trans service, axle service, radiator flushes, any preventative maintenance, anything major replaced (engine, trans, etc.) Give us some advice! I don't have a Marauder (yet) but when I get one- I want to drive it forever... :burnout:
 
I went 95K with 186 races. 53+k were S/C.

Had I not ignored/misdiagnosed a CEL I think it would have gone another year.

I assumed the lean left bank was an oxy sensor but I know beleive the fuel pumps were going out.

3K Ford Oil Changes. 15-20K Tranny fluid changes. The tranny was built, had 70+K on it and when they opened it yp it was in great shape.
 
I have a good ear, so I hear everything(ask my 13 year old son- Mom hears all). Motorcraft blended oil every 3,000 w/wix filter, trany every 20,000. just common sense. Drive the car the way she should be driven. Just for fun I do wash her once a week.
I have put in a radiator and fan, and she is on her 3rd set of gears.
I try to follow the owners guide.

Are you still on the origional motor? The last time i read a marauder going to 180,XXX miles before the motor blew
 
I have just under 24k on my 04 marauder and about to turn over 200k on my 01 crown vic original engine and trans. Man these things will run forever if you take care of them. Best damn cars i EVER owned.:bows:
 
The highest mileage was just under 26 mpg, the worst was my last tank @ 13.+
I'm no where near the highest miles @ 57500 right now.
 
Now come on, *everyone knows that if it isn't from the Pacific rim, it's garbage after 100,000 miles. :rolleyes:




*per Consumer Reports, and other idiot car rags who think like them. :down:
 
Just turned 68,000... Bought it with 53,000 back in May... Just put a cold air intake on it. So far making it very well through the New England winter
 
68,000 on mine. The drivetrain will hold up. However the body of mine I don't know will make it to 150k and still be nice looking.
