Umm, but that's only 155342 miles. That's not much. Too early to retire it, IMO. There's a silverado around here with the 5.3l that has over 300,000 miles on it and still runs like a top. The owner doesn't treat it good either, he literally floors it everywhere.

My '02 1500 Z71 just rolled over 200k. She still runs like a top, no major problems so far. She's been used pretty rough as a work truck, lots of off-road/field driving and lots of hauling tools/equipment. With lots more in the future.

 

I have to assume our SSS's are capable of 200k+ as well, especially if you treat em' right :)

156,000 here. These are great engines. I used to work for GM Technical Assistance and I remember when these engines first came out. At that time, GM wanted some engines back (untouched) for analysis. They took a bunch of 300,000 mile engines back from customers (mostly fleet customers) and gave them a brand new engine in return. There were a ton of these engines at that mile range that had never had so much as a valve cover off. Just good maintenance schedules.

 

I'm more then impressed with mine considering that those are mostly supercharged miles (FuelSlut was the original owner of the truck).
