219,000+ miles on my 2008 Dodge Ram 1500 5.7. I am the original owner and it is bone stock with no issues. It has had a couple sets of spark plugs and gets regular oil & filter changes.

My 06 Ram 5.7 didn`t have any internal engine issues with 120,000 on it when it was sold. Now the rest of the truck was a different story. I don`t even feel like listing them.

My 2004 Ram has about 150,000 miles on it. Just standard maintenance so far. The EGR went bad about 8 years ago so that cost $100 at the dealer. Otherwise just oil changes, filter changes and coolant flushes. I think the plugs have been changed a couple of times but plug wires might be original. I don't remember every detail of the past 15 years of maintenance.

I had a 2011 ram with almost 300,000 when the lifter wiped out the cam, figured whole engine would be wore slap out so I put in a rebuilt motor and when I eventually disceted the original it looked nearly new, bearings didn''t show any wear and there was no ridge in the bore just a slight wave you could barely feel, had cross hatch all the way up,%95 of the piston coating was still like new. I could have put in a new cam/lifters and got another 100,000 easily without even cleaning out the oil pan. [u][/u]

You've seen the vids after belts were treated with aerospace 303 right? 250k miles and looking new

A friend of mine has a mid 2000's Dodge Magnum with a 5.7 Hemi. Well over 400,000 miles (Close to 1/2 a million) Original trans and rear axle also. Get this.....Original alternator! Nothing has been rebuilt or needed a major repair.

05 Power Wagon, stock 5.7, 320,000 kms. Engine untouched other than water pump, plugs and coils. Runs fine, does not use excessive oil. Change oil every 5-6,000 kms.
