I've got 108000 miles on my 92 V6 CC. I doesn't use any oil between changes,
haven't had a belly pan problem, and I wouldn't think twice about loading the
family into it, hooking up the camper and going cross country with it. I think
the big difference is I bought the truck new and have done all the maintenance
on it. I know the truck is solid.
