Not sure of the credibility of the article, but nice to see coyote among them.

It is a very credible, very reputable internet source, if he can cite it it must be true!!!

Looking at the list of engines on that site, it does seem credible.

With meticulous care and plenty of oil changes, those big NA V8 engines on the list are believable.
Most of the problems people had is they didn't change the oil regularly or the actual car turned into an absolute rust bucket and the engine went to the junk yard well before its time.

A lot of them are from 40-50 years ago...

It depends on what model year, who built it at Ford, and on what day - some made it from the dealer to 12 blocks up the road, others made it to 2k-5k miles without any issue …. and some are still going strong….

LMAO

I think the coyote platform is pretty well proven at this point. There’s always going to be a dud or two but it’s about as reliable an engine as there is these days.

If the 3.5 ecoboost tops the list it's definitely BS. But yes the coyote is stout. NA I'd expect high mileage.

I don’t know, mine blew up at 20k miles… but it’s a dedicated track car

I blame the tune, detonation failures are rarely the fault of the engine

Well... I'm a 2017 @ 111,000 miles mostly HW driving for work. I have never been on a track. I might add 1/4 of a quart of oil, if needed, idk every few months or once in between changes. I'm currently about to do a 'refresh' with opg/cs, cams, springs, chains vct etc and will throw 10-11 lbs of boost at it probably within 6 months. I doubt i'll have any issues at all.

My 2012 F150 had 300,000 miles of hard truck use when I traded it. It ran fine and did not use oil. The truck bed was pretty rusted.
