Highest Mileage Mach 1
Who has the most miles on an 03/04 Mach 1? I notice alot of us have really low miles (I only have 30k on my 03) and wanted to see if anyone was using them as a daily driver and if so how they hold up. I remember the old 5.0's going well into the 200k's with no problems. How does our motor stand the test of time?

no troubles. still strong... about to procharge it since it is nearly paid off I drive just to drive it. At least one cruise every single day (except when I am working cause I work 12 hour shifts) |

Re: Highest Mileage Mach 1
**** that is impressive amount of miles.
Linumup- I grew up just north of you in Bel Air. I moved out back in 88 when I joined the Navy. The place sure has changed over the past 20 years. |

I have some concern adding boost to a motor with that many miles. I am also looking at a little bit more of an investment. Rather than spending 7k of the procharger install, for 11k, I could drop an aluminator with a roots blower. Then she would be all new. didn't mean to hijack |
Re: Highest Mileage Mach 1
I have 84,500 on mine still a great running car must have been finished on a wednesday. Sadly it is now in the garage for the winter.

Re: Highest Mileage Mach 1
Coming up on 83,000 miles.
Problems I've had: A/C Compressor blew - fixed under warranty 6-CD changer died, replaced with new one Bent right rear axle - Replaced cheap Currently: Throw-Out bearing is ready to die So, for the amount of crap I've put my car through, it's holding up nicely. I'm impressed. |

That is what I am trying to find out. I believe that our engines are built pretty tough and should hold up at least as well as the 5.0 and 2V 4.6. |
Re: Highest Mileage Mach 1

No Worries....
My Mach has been my daily driver for a few years now. I am coming up on 120,000 miles and the engine is still as strong as ever. I can't say the same about the transmission though....Lol... of course that may be an isolated incident :) |

Re: Highest Mileage Mach 1
At 104k right now, just basic stuff needed replacement. Clutch/TOB, Alternator, and brakes and oil changes,etc.
Car still runs great. I love it. |
Re: Highest Mileage Mach 1

Re: Highest Mileage Mach 1
83k+ of very hard driven miles. New trans, but that was driver error when I let someone drive it.. Other then that the ONLY thing I've changed is oil & plugs. (and whatever mods)
