Alright, lots of anxiety right now about the 2.7 and the "failure tracker" thread. So, figured a thread of 2.7's running great with no issues would be helpful to contrast the unfortunate bad news list.

So, if you're willing - post up your engine build date and current mileage. If this catches on, people can post every month or so with update mileage (assuming we don't all jinx ourselves)

Here's mine with a gratuitous picture of my Bronco. 6/28 build with 478 miles and lots more coming

I guess some are always going to fret. Some will, some won't, but all are under warranty. My 6-30 BD WT is running perfectly at 4700 miles. Relax would be my suggestion

All good. Just 6k

Agree 100%. I've read posts of people wanting to sell their perfectly fine Bronco b/c the engine may grenade. I'm going to drive the hell out of mine and if something happens, it'll get a new motor and then will drive the hell out of that one too. That's what they're made for

9;300 miles and runs great. Zero issues so far. Minor quirks with sync 4 like everyone else, nothing at all engine related since I picked it up 9/1.

Our JDs are one day apart….21196. Good to see that kind of mileage 3000mi here. No issues.

The three numbers to the right of the 21 reflect the ‘Julian date’, or the number of days after the new year

So far I've got you all beat...12000+ miles and still going strong. I'll post my build date when I get a chance tomorrow.

I’m at about 3500 miles, no issues . Drive it like I stole through break in and continue to do so. The first time I actually drove it responsibly was just recently on a trip from Stockton to Monterey. Netted 19.6 mpg with CC set at 74 and a nice tail wind. This included two stops, both were of the drive thru variety ( engine running )or else I probably could have seen 20mpg. Overall I’m sitting at 16.4 mpg since the day I bought it. Not bad for 35’s.
