Actually Dustin, the interval on early 3.0's is 150K, extended to 200K on 2023 and newer. By then it's all a crap-shoot anyway. Belt part number is the same for all years..
I've been down the rabbit hole researching this on forums (it's like talking politics!) and decided I'd prefer a scheduled maintenance over a "can fail at any time" (AFM/DFM lifters). I love my Baby Max, traded an Audi S6 for it and never looked back.
I rarely keep anything past 100K anyway. - Bill W
