Once you no longer have a mortgage or auto loan reporting just CC accounts with 0 balances what is the highest score you can get or have seen. At this point you are relying only on AAoA and length of credit history

Even closed accounts are still scored as being part of a credit mix although they are not weighed as heavily as open, active accounts.
I won't hazard a guess though as to your question about possible scores. There are simply too many varuiables IMO.

My question is for when all the auto loans and mortgage loans drop off and its only CC accounts reporting

Oh......I misread your post.
But I still won't try to guess any possible score.

Your guess is as good as mine!
Types of credit, at 10% overall weighting, would account for 85 points.
What is done with scoring of those 85 points is part of the mystery of the properietary FICO scoring algorithm, what factors it considers under that category, and the weighting of each.
In addition to the presence of both revolving and installment, I am speculating that, since FICO puts strong reliance on revolving credit in their risk analysis, additional factors, such as lack of any revolving, or lack of plural revolving, might additionally be part of this types of credit category. Maybe store cards score less in types of credit than major bank cards. Who knows.
Unless one makes assumptions of all the factors and their relative weithtings, it would not be possible to isolate the affect only of mix of install/revolv. Make a guess.
One of my scores is over 800 and my tradelines are made of three credit cards and student loans that are in in-school deferment. No mortgage or auto loan (past or present).
My gf has a FICO score of just under 820. She doesn't have auto loans or mortgages but a long history of CCs. She is completely crazy about paying her CCs the instant they come in the mail.
What is the length of her Credit history and her AAoA ?
Not sure, she only has 4 CCs and doesn't use most of them often. Her first CCs were probably at least 25 years ago and I'm sure her AAoA is around 10 years.
