https://www.roadandtrack.com/new-cars/g19661272/longest-lasting-cars/ Every guy on here says his car last 200k+, if it does your in the 1%! I'd bet most of not all those listed by Road and Track are N/A. Mass has a lot to do with the Turbos lasting in big rigs, Turbos are much bigger, thermal...

I thought this thread was about the 2.7 Eco Boost. Last I knew the F250 didn't run an Eco Boost. Maybe a boosted diesel but not a 2.7! On average a small displacement high output turbo charged engine is not gonna last as long as a naturally aspirated engine it just won't. Now will you get an...

I'm not saying that some eco boosts don't get 200k+, what I'm saying is it's not the norm!

Well, your in the 1%, and if every vehicle you've ever owned all looked and ran like brand new at 200,000 miles, with no major problems you must have Jesus Christ riding shotgun!

My nephew had a Subaru FB20, only problem he had was some engine seals/gaskets started to leak. Not sure how many miles he had on it.

https://www.roadandtrack.com/new-cars/g19661272/longest-lasting-cars/ Says about 1% makes it to 200,000. If you make it your one of the lucky few! I'm betting most on this list are naturally aspirated.

With a twin turbo Ecoboost, maybe but probably not!

Trouble free, 250k? I suppose it happens occasionally.

Yeah, that isn't gonna happen, no way I could spend that much on lug nuts!

I have these also, but still if your not careful they chip. I've found that if you wrap aluminum foil around the nuts or line the lug wrench with foil it helps with the chipping, but it still happens.

It doesn't mean that engine hasn't been repaired/rebuilt/replaced in that 205,000 miles either. I'd bet my lunch the turbos aren't original!

The problem with the black lug nuts off eBay/Amazon is that the black paint chips really easy. I've looked for one's that are not painted but blackened by another process like black chrome but no luck. I've even tried ones that say they are powder coated, but they also chipped.

I stay completely away from mud and mud bogs, grew up in that crap, guess that's why a gravitate towards the desert and rocks out west.

This is so true, it's hard to say what type of figures you are getting at lighter throttle. That said picking the right line on a trail is more important than worrying about which engine is putting out more power and torque. Pulling a trailer or loading your Bronco down you may be able to tell...

1966 Bronco with 170 inline 6 made around 90 hp and 146 ft lb of torque. The 289 V8 of the same year made about 200 hp and 282 ft lb of torque. The 1978 Bronco with the 351 V8 put out about 150 hp and 275 ft lb of torque. The 2.3 on premium gas puts out 300 hp and 325 ft lb of torque. The 2.7 on...

You'll get there with or without that low end torque.

Just got back from Super Cell in Colorado In a BD with a 2.3 and couldn't be more pleased. It did absolutely everything I needed to do. It took every trail I put it on right along side broncos with 2.7 and raptors with 3.0. These comparisons between 2.3 and 2.7's are idiotic! 30hp and 100 pounds...

Yeah it would be nice to be able to compare it on same trail with them on and off, but that's not possible as I had to go back home and there are zero trails in my area. I'm pretty confident though that it makes more articulation and that is a positive.

After running numerous trails I can say that the Walker Links does allow the front suspension to articulate better. My non SAS Black Diamond seemed more surefooted on the trails. This is far from scientific, but from my experience I think they work great! On the highway you can feel that the...
