    I have been looking into mods such as a suspension lift kit and other electrical additions, im hoping to keep this car for 200k miles. How does modification effect the engine life of the car?

    Each mod will lower the longevity by 10k miles.

    So, if I do all of the mods I plan, I'll only get 400K miles out of it!?

    I want my money back!!

    Seriously, though, if you take care of the truck and don't try to half-ass your modifications, I don't see why they would significantly affect the longevity.

    Use quality parts from reputable brands. Be extra careful with electrical work. Re-gear if you go with big tires.

    I'm sure there's a few people around here with heavily modded trucks with high mileage.

    I might catch up to you. I bought my '19 in January and I'm at 22K. My problem is that any decent trails are 3 hours from home.
