Longest lasting vehicles on the road

some feelings are going to be hurt. Popcorn is coming again.

Should be no surprise. Ford sells more, so there should be more on the road.
Same with Chevrolets, and GMC. Lots more Chevrolet trucks sold than GMC trucks, So there should be more of them running as well.

Are all the F-250 and 2500HD trucks diesel? It looks like gas engines have proven to be almost as reliable as diesels.

Those numbers are not based on the total number of vehicles on the list. It is a percentage of the total vehicles of that particular model sold. If they stated numbers like 100,000 units instead of a percentage, your assessment would be correct, but in this case it is not.

I drive a Ford, my wife drives a Jeep Wrangler and we also own a Toyota 4Runner, but I get a little less blinded by brand loyalty as I get older. I still couldn't help but laugh when I saw that Dodge/Ram was absent from the list. Not that I was bagging on the brand, but it made me think that maybe it is true that the only thing Dodge owners run is their mouth! They need to get off the forums and drive their trucks!;)

One can look at numbers a lot of different ways. Deere maybe you should sit and go through the 3192 entries.

The data noted above was from listing of vehicles for sale. Maybe as noted below, people just keep driving Dodge/Ram/Cummins instead of turning them over. Or because mileage is not a big deal to the Cummins they do not list it.

Not sure the number mean much of anything, given time and money one can make number say what ever you want.

A Cummins only site doesn't provide anything in the way of comparison information.

So, go find a high mile Duramax or Powerstroke link and post it up!

FYI, I could not find a site for GM and Ford similar to the Cummins one!

Very true, but as the first report is based on used sales, likely Cummins that get to 200,000 miles just don't get sold. :)

Just another way too look at the numbers, that could almost be interpreted to say that once a Ford hits 200,000 mils the owner doesn't trust it.

Did the report only report the sale on a VIN # once, or if the truck was sold at 201,000, then at 210,000 and 240,000 did it count once or three times.

I seem be up there.
