Just got back from Dallas for Thanksgiving. I'm at 185633, still running strong, but the front supension is weak. Looking to get it fix soon.
__________________ 04 Armada LE with 160,000 miles on it. wheels are 305,45,22 W/Bilstein HD, LED head lights. Tureflow intake, Stillen big brake kit on the front. Stillen Header with custom FlowMaster dual side exhaust. Pioneer AVIC X930BTsystem with Orion 6x9 in the front and Alpine SPR-17S
in the rear with Alpine PDX-5 AMP JL W6 10INCH sub in rear. Viper Smart start system
Right now, I am at 210,000 on it, no major issues, soon to be replaced will be the starter and all four tires. The tires themselves pulled about 65,000 and still going. Unbelievable if you ask me.
.... But only because I'm married to the queen! My wife has a 2004 armada with an amazing 354,000 miles. It runs great and still looks great. She really wants a trade, but I don't have the heart to let it go. It's an automotive marvel.
Re: Who is the King of the highest mileage Armada, is it you?

That's incredible! congrats. here are some numbers for thought:
at an average of 350 miles per tank you've used over 1000 gallons of fuel.
at an average price of $3.80 per gallon of fuel, you've spent about $3800
for a truck this size and massive that is an extraordinary feat!
Are you talking about the Armada with 354,000 miles?
If so you need someone to help you break off the maths!
My Armada would need over 23,000 gallons to make it happen
And if I needed to buy 23,000 gallons of fuel at California prices it would set me back over $90,000
Not to mention, well over $10,000 in routine maintenance.
75 oil changes, 24 tires, 24 spark plugs, a bunch of air filters, some gear oil, some ATF and a few minor repairs.
