I wouldn’t call it a forever truck but I got 225k miles on my old truck and it was 13 years old when I traded it in for this one. I plan on keeping this one a long time as well and I don’t want payments.
In my old truck, the only “had to replace items” were the alternator, fuel pump and trans rebuild (at 180k). I did replace the spark plugs and front suspension parts at about 100k for grins. It was a good truck.
The only long term concerns I have on the ‘14 are the electronics. My ‘01 F150 was much simpler.
When we go on trips, we always take my truck. It fits four adults, drives great and gets decent mpg. Luggage goes in back under a cover.
