Heard of a 2001 Ford F-150 5.4 2 valve having 630,000 miles without any problems.. The guy said his company retired it and it ran great.. So does that mean my truck is just getting broken in? a 7.3 powerstroke will last 650,000 ( or so I've heard ) I also read another one about a 7.3 that was a tow truck had 950,000+ miles then it got totaled..

Anything is possible but its doubtful on the gasser.. 900k on a diesel... Yes. I work on Freightliner's for a living and we have plenty of them on the road with over a million miles.

Welcome to the forum! And that's awesome, the 4.6L may have had less power but it was definitely more reliable and had less known major issues.

My 02 5.4L has 63000 on it. I worry about body rust more than motor reliability. I may need another motor after the twin turbos go in. kaboom.
