I've got 175000 on one of mine and only things I've replaced were the water pump gaskets & 4x4 switch. Still on the original front brakes.

No issues at all. Brakes changed out at 80k. Only regular oil change every 3000 miles.

115,000 miles on my 2002 5.3.. Needs the steering shaft replaced due to famous GM steering knock i feel in the steering wheel, which is jus annoying not a real problem. I also have the famous GM piston slap in the morning, which is no biggy jus let her warm up and shes good to go. Had steering knuckle replaced under warranty cause was clicking really bad. Other then that its one of the best runnin and hard pullin motors u could ask for. Its my daily driver and work truck. I haul boat loads of heavy heavy materials along with pulling an extremly heavy trailer, and not a problem one! Change oil every 3,000 miles and have always added LUCAS OIL STABALIZER.

I am really curious if the diesel's have any of these issues. Is it true that 100k+ is no problem for them?

what kind of diesel? My girlfriend had a 94 dodge cummins with 364,000 on it. Stock everything. They still have it and tow with it too, but now she's rocking a 2000 tahoe.
