But yes my car has a ton of miles and has never had any major issues whatsoever. It's still got another 100k in it, I believe. And I love the ABM color so much, I plan to rebuild whenever the engine/tran eventually gives up.

The exterior is almost spotless. I don't even wash as much as I should, maybe twice a month. Just do normal oil changes and routine maintenance. Nothing special, in fact I'm used to driving indestructible hondas so I'm not even the kind of person to go out of my way to maintain other than the bare minimum. This car just keeps going strong.

The ABM color is just as beautiful as it was the day it was born and I still get complements daily about the looks.
Do you drive your hard? Original T-Chain?

Super cool milestone! I am actually glad to have finally seen someone with a number that high! I am looking forward to when I hit a milestone like that with mine!

Thanks for sharing!

Great to see all the high miles with minimal issues, keep posting!

I have a 2002 Trailblazer with 302,000 and the engine is untouched. The tranny gave out at 190,000 but we also towed a big boat for a few years. I run synthetic oil and change it regularly myself.

And suddenly, the 197,000 miles on my Maxima doesn't feel as large as it did 5 minutes ago.

This is ridiculous! Congrats on the high mileage to both of you! I'm feeling bad about turning 40k over on my car this week!

125,000 miles and still going stong and looking good!!
Today, my wonderful 2010 Camaro RS hits 125,000 miles on her.

She has performed beyond my expectations. I never imagined the car being this awesome back when I saw the concept.

I would like to thank General Motors for building me such an awesome car. THANK YOU

I would also like to thank this site for info, ideas for mods, and friendship.

************************************************** ***************************

Good for you ...congrats and many more

Just curious how often did you change oil & what kind? Also did you ever change the trans fluid and when? Thanks.
