That truck ^^^^^ should last a long time, I have a 99 Tahoe with the last of the 5.7 Vortex engine with 245K and still runs great with all the original running gear!
If your truck is the same as my Tahoe I would highly advise getting rid of the heater hose quick disconnect at the passenger side front of the engine. They have been known to pop off! Also keep an eye on your water level the intake manifold gasket is known to leak. Take care of those two items and good maintenance you will have a long lasting truck!
