My uncle has a 98 or 99 F150 with over 300,000 miles and it's still running fine. No major engine work done to it and it's his daily driver.

I'd believe it.

Anyway, my buddy had a Ford Taurus that lasted for 312k miles until she finally died.

That is cool. "I've had it up to 120 before". That's great. First thing I thought of was the Little Ol' Lady from Pasadena.

Any car can do that, just as long as you don't cheap out and maintain them properly.
