Thats a nice break down of everything you went through keeping the truck running. Now since you posted how many gallons of fuel you burned i was curious if i could figure out how much you spent on gas. Between 2010-2015 the average price of regular was around $3. When i multiplied that $3 by 13,103 i got quite a large number, $39,309 I think i did that right maybe LOL

I think you are pretty close! lol I know some of the 2011 miles were at $4/gal (most pumps had a $100 max and I remember getting so mad when I had to go in with my card just to finish filling up).

Truck looks great. I'm not far behind you in milage, but I've had way more things go bad on my truck than you. I can't even remember all the repairs. Recently just had a new wheel bearing due to the speed sensor going bad.

I just added an ARE cap, I love that thing. Very secure and looks a lot better than I thought it would.

Do you have any engine mods? You life time MPG are the same as mine. Which is surprising to me since I have LT headers and a lot of offroad miles.

Yukon, stock all the way. I did just a little offloading when I first got it, but the large majority of miles have been highway.

As to the A.R.E shell, it is all that and more!

Full disclosure, the blend door actuator has been going out for about a year. I can deal with the 3 knocks each time I start the engine. I plan to run it until it freezes on 'cold' in the winter or 'hot' in the summer. And of course, I have the 'clunk' in the drive shaft. It would be great if FORD is reading this and decides to replace it, otherwise, the next $300 will go to replace it with one that has the teflon on the splines.

All that being said, this is one hell of a truck!!!!!

I bet the relay you replaced was the one for the A/C as I had to replace mine as well.

Nope, this one kept the truck from starting.

Nice. I'm halfway there in my 2012, just hit 75k. But I've had way more issues than you so far.

Drippin, knock on wood! I halfway expect to find the engine laying on the driveway that now that I have posted this on the forum. lol

Love reading this thread every now and then. Just rolled over 91k with my 2014 and thinking I'll keep this one for a while. We'll see, as I have been off road a little more than you and hoping that doesn't affect future durability. No rattles or squeaks. Driveshaft has that noise as well.

I like that :)
Tomorrow I will be passing the 100K km marker
(doing 200K km/day to work and back).
I still love to drive it and hopefully I will too get the 240K km marker (which is about 150K miles)

Dip the tip of you shaft in some grease. It won't squeak after that. Lol...
