88k Miles here, original engine.
Still pulls strong in cold weather, but in the heat she's a bit slower than she used to be. I plan on getting the compression checked later this summer, so hopefully I can get a new engine before the 100k warranty is up. I'm not sure how long past 100k it'll last, but it's been a great engine so far since they day I bought her new

89k on original 04 engine. Still runs just as strong as when I first got it (at 66k).
Oil change at least every 5000 miles 5w20 non synthetic.
Redline at least once a day

Ditto!! I id buy an extended warranty though.. I think it will be crap if I do have to replace the engine with it but they have replaced my starter so far..
