Just about to hit 120k. Bought the truck last year with 102k miles. I get around 18 - 20 MPG, 80% city, 20% highway driving. So far I've had to replace the door pins, front upper and lower ball joints, water pump, idler pulley and tensioner, battery, alternator, front and rear wiper motor, spark plugs and wires, distributor cap and rotor, intake manifold gasket, PCV valve, Evap purge solenoid and valve, fuel pump, thermostat.... (probably forgeting other things).
Will need to replace soon: Hub bearings, oil cooler lines, tie rods and (probably) pitman arm.
That's a decent amount of work for 18k miles of driving! But overall I can't complain, the truck gets me to work and back home safely. Hopefully she'll make it to 180k like my other blazers did without too much problems.

2000 LT 4x4 @ 116K miles. Intake gaskets, idler arm, and front wheel bearing are the only non-maintenance things I've had to do. Although my front end is starting to feel a little loose so I see ball joints and tie rods in my near future. With that many miles I'll probably throw new axles in it too.
