100,000 miles


Recommended Posts

Posted

Well it's official, I'm now a member of the 100k mile vehicle owners. I bought this truck brand new in August 2006 and now just over 6 years later, I have finally driven a vehicle to the 100k mile marker. This is a personal record for me.

 

Time for some scheduled maintenance and TLC for "The Truck"...I'm going to enjoy this!

Congratulations

 

The most I ever did on a single vehicle was about 272,000 on a 1970 Pontiac Grand Prix.

The engine finally broke a piston at 236,000 on a WOT run in -5F weather. I put a "new" engine with

98,000 on it and rebuilt the transmission.

MIne rolled it over last year, but I only put 12K of that on it. I bought it with 87K with the hopes of getting at least another 100K out of it.

 

Roll on :thumbs:

45 miles. First and only owner...plan on keeping that way for a looooooong time. Just maybe my next truck will be an addition vs replacement (fingers crossed.)

 

Nice!

 

It is a good feeling to have a paid for vehicle!

 

That was earlier this year. Paid it off a few months early.

 

Thanks everyone.

rolled over 100k on my 03 in the summer, just rolled 125k last week. luckily i have not really put much money into this truck so far, its riding really good right now. my trannys shifts are getting kind of sloppy though.

 

good luck with your truck

Mine will be at 100k by the end of next April I think...

 

Maybe I'll get a motor in my old one and get it to 200k, it's only 8k away.

Just the transmission at 278k miles. The engine started smoking on start up around 301k but still runs good when warm. Other than that no major work so far (knock on wood)
