'96 E350 PowerStroke w/279K and climbing and worked very hard, regular service only. '92 F-Super w/220K and climbing and worked very hard, regular service only. '04 Silverado 2500HD w/249K when sold and worked hard, regular service only. '06 Dodge Grand Caravan w/280K and climbing and worked fairly hard, regular service only.
Take care of stuff and it lasts. Don't and stuff breaks.

I see dodge figured out how to build a reliable automatic transaxle.
The family 96 dodge grand caravan I ended up selling about 2 years ago had about 230k on it, but was on its 3rd or 4th transmission. Regular service only.
