I used to work at a GM dealership, Service Sales Manager, Parts
Manager, and the GM for an AC/Delco wholesale distributor.

We stocked hundreds of single part number AC compressors, Starters,
Alternators, and blower motors.

I have just over 100K on my F150. So far, the only things I've
replaced are batteries(2), tires(1 set), brakes, and plugs. Of course
oil, filters, and all the routine stuff.

This is the only vehicle I've had that's gone over 100K. My Ranger
might have limped over the line, before it was put out of its misery.

My Ranger (model year 2000) made it to 160k (tires, brakes, batteries and one alternator)
before a derecho-driven tree decided to crush the cab and bed. It was
still running great. I loved that truck, base model, no power anything,
manual transmission, no extended cab, no fancy radio, just a working truck.

The replacement colorado, meh.
