50 K miles and not an issue. Normal wear and tear. I just replaced the fron upper ball joints. OEM had no grease fittings and wore out. New ones have fittings.

I replaced my front brake pads and rotors due to warped rotors. The new Hark pads and powerslots make a huge difference in the stopping distance. I highly recomend this.

Otherwise nothing major. I run synthetic in it and change it every 7.5K miles. I am taking it in for a tranny change and rear diff. fluid real soon too.

I have toyed with buying an extended warranty on it just in case the tranny goes. I tow a car trailer a lot with it.

At 12000 miles the rear diff started whining, took it in and they said it was normal, which is BS. I will wait till a bit before the warranty runs out and demand a new one be put in. 17500 miles the transmission is leaking from the gasket between the two main pieces. CEL is on, haven't had time to take it in yet.
