Mine is DD and it's a normal thing to run 600-800 miles in a day, once per week with multiple 200 mile daily trips a week. Mine has 357K on it.

Yup, two trips from Houston to Seattle - one towing a trailer with a TR1ke, 355K miles, still running strong.
I run some seafoam through the engine about 100 miles before an oil change, and change the filter and oil every 5k.
Have done a complete transmission flush and transmission filter change. as well as changing out the brake fluid.

I've got a '94 80 with 395,000 miles showing. I took two 1000 mile round trips recently towing 1500 lbs on a trailer. last week I took my 91 yr old mother on a solo trip through Coppinger cove. I was a little nervous about being solo but truck performed flawlessly.
