2020 F150 3.5eco boost

It’s my dream truck, I leased it new and bought it out after the lease. 3.5 ecoboost, Supercrew cab, 6.5 ft bed, towing mirrors, etc.

I have had issues with the IWE actuator which has been replaced 4 times before they finally realized it was a vacuum issue in the engine. That issue has since resolved (hopefully for good)

I hit 115,000 miles and the transmission started slipping pretty bad (a known issue). So $5,000 later I got the CDF drum replaced, whole transmission rebuilt with the new updated parts. Leaving the shop the engine light came on and now needs an O2 sensor and Purge valve replacement. (Another $1,000)

My question is, should it be a reliable truck now and hopefully make it to 200,000 miles or do I need to cut my losses and look to upgrade/trade in?

** extra info, I’m moving across the country and have several thousand miles ahead in the next few months.
