Who has the most miles so far on a 5th Gen?

Good to see some members w/ 100K+ on their 5th Gens w/ no reported major maintenance issues.

I had a 2008 Explorer that needed a new transmission at less than 30,000 and it would eat brakes and rotors with the zeal of a chubby kid at Baskin Robins.
 
About to hit 60k miles on my 2011, other than the modding I've done it's just gotten oil changes and a few cabin filters. I had an issue related to my roof rack but that was my fault.

I did notice two small rust spots on the rear hatch that will need attention. That said unsure if it's a paint issue or damage I did, while I don't beat it up off-road I am not gentle hauling stuff in and out of it.

Still original brakes, which is amazing given my mountain stop and go driving to ski all the time.

I've had my '14 Trail since July, and I'm already at 20k. It's been a busy year! No problems of any kind, but it's too new by far to have any. I'd say 95% highway/city and 5% trail/off-road.
 
2014 base TE purhased new in March of last year. Currently at 25xxx miles and will hit 30k before a full year is up.

Never been back to dealer. Standard oil changes, tire rotations, air, and cabin filters. Love the truck, especially with the price of gas down now.

I'm still under 2800. 14 LE.

One day when my other beaters die, she will start racking up the miles. Last truck was 16 years old and co existed with other beaters, still got 200K out of it.
 
Most miles on a 5th gen?

Can anyone beat 131,000?

I have a 2010 limited with these miles. Looks and feels like new still.
 
I've got 79463 today.

Only issues are a slight rattling in the overhead console and theres a faint smell of burning hair coming from the front left wheel well.

No leaks—engine, hoses, belts look brand new.

Paint was great until I took ownership, but I don't need to worry about that now. When I was a kid and my dad purchased a new truck he would drive it through some brush and branches and say "Now we don't have to worry about scratching the paint."

I bought a new Ford Explorer in 95 first year of V8. Drove it to 75k in a few years and nothing ever went wrong.
 
I'm only at 45k with my 2011 LE.

I wanted to chime in and mention that consumer reports did not recommend that I purchase this vehicle in 2011, It was poorly rated by them and I ignored those ratings and trusted the history of Toyota 4runners. I'm glad I did, because even though the gas mileage is not great on these trucks, my entire drivetrain, engine and transmission has not had 1 single issue yet, not even a little hiccup. All it takes is one trip to the mechanic to wipe out all of your money saved on gas. So needless to say, thank you Toyota and Japan for making a badass solid vehicle! :tea:
 
i'm at a total 150,000 miles in a 5th Gen - just not all in the same rig.

90K on my 2010 TE and another 60K on the current 2013 TE purchased in Oct 2013.
 
61,348 miles on my 2013 sr5. No problems, just lubbed everything and changed transmission fluid. Truck runs like a champ.
