"Legend in your own mind" best describes someone who can't own up
to their mistakes.

You can play mechanic if and when you get your facts straight.

Probably true Roy, even though I've been subscribed and posting
to a.t.f for over ten years.
More evidence that reality and Shojob are mutually exclusive.

and rattled around until they stripped out.

I have QUOTED FORDS own information, in reply to an inquire. You spew BS
and conjecture, and accuse me of knowing nothing.
ARE YOU TRULY THAT FUCKIN STUPID???
Pull you head out of your ass, grab a breath of fresh air, maybe then you
will be capable of cognizant thought.

Na, ain't gonna happen...

200K miles should be easy if the vehicle is properly maintained. I traded my
1997 Expedition with the 5.4L at 149,000 miles and the engine was in great
shape. I belong to an Expedition mailing list and a number of members have
more than 200K on 5.4L engines. Most of the taxis in my area are ex-police
Crown Victorias with 4.6L Modular Motors. I am sure some of the older ones
are over 300K. Occasionally I see some oil smoke out of the rear (mostly
early 90's CVs) but most don't smoke at all.

You didn't start a flame war. The exghange here was more a informational
exercise imo.

Please, allow me to apologize for hi-jacking your thread.
