Just last week replaced the OEM original battery in my 2004 F150 "Heritage" that I bought new Oct/Nov of 2003. Truck has about 66k on it only. It was getting weak last fall and the last time I had driven the truck in January I had to put the charger on it. It was dead a couple weeks ago and would barely take any charging current. I probably should have replaced it a year ago for summer road trips but wanted to see how long it would last. So about 14-1/2yrs.
As for tires, in Sept 2014 (~11yrs old), I had one of the original tires on the truck have tread separation and a foot long chunk came off the RR tire making for horrible vibration. I was towing my unloaded 18" car hauler at the time whose tires were not so good and thought it was the trailer. I stopped to check the trailer tires 2 times out on the road and could not see anything going on with them so I kept going with the vibration getting worse. Finally the last time I stopped to check the trailer again I spotted the tread missing from the truck tire and put the spare on. Replaced all the tires right after as I was planning on a 600 mile round trip. Those tires had about 49k on them and looked fine w/o any cracks, etc.

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
