Do you have over 150k miles? Look here!

[Gumby]

144K engine has never been opened.

2 teachers who's 80s I work on regularly have about 120,000 each on original HGs.

In fact, I can't think of any in the Chicago area that have had them.

Woody, Chitown40, NW-Sickboy, Waterush, Archie, Scott, and Bryan here on the list are all running their first HG, I think.

maybe it's the weather and altitude in the midwest.

Let's see. I made a poll

Original Headgasket blew at 94,000mi. Replaced along with the water pump, radiator, t-stat, phh and some other things. I didn't have to replace those items I just thought i might as well while they had the engine torn apart. Truck is at 100,070mi and runs amazing

There might be some missing info here..., perhaps folks should be adding their location. I suspect that the head gasket issue might be related to challenging cooling conditions.

Mine was sold in Phoenix, moved to Dallas and then Los Angeles, Ixtapa, Los Angeles & now back in Phoenix.

That'd be the point of the other poll
