Maintaining higher mileage trucks
2011 F150 5.0, 90,000 miles. I'm happy with the truck and at 70, not too many more years of towing. I'd like to ride it out with this vehicle. I've been OK with dealer service and they are convenient...

2011 with 90k...you have a decade and 100k miles or more before you could consider it old.
Sold the last two trucks as 250k and 200k...both were fine mechanically but the bodies were rusting away.
If you can find an independent mechanic you trust, it will be just as good of service and likely a bit cheaper (they don't have to send Ford a franchise check). If you want original Ford parts, just specify it and they will do it.
I suggesting asking some local buddies around town as the folks on the forum are unlikely to know a guy near you.
