1998 Lexus GS with 317,862 miles on it

[NFS4]

Saw over at VW Vortex/The Car Lounge:

All I have ever done is replace brake shoes, changed front rotors once, replaced one coolant sensor, one wheel bearing and 7 sets of tires

Sales of course. The product that I sell only requires me to be on-site for a couple of hours either doing a presentation or installation. We sell a niche product so you have to cover a lot of real estate to have a large enough customer base to work with. I cover about 7 states or a roughly 8 hour (+/- a couple of hours) one way radius from my office. Flying makes little sense as a lot of the areas I travel to would be difficult by air.

We live close to everything, take public transportation to/from work. Eventually we'll take some trips to Canadia and Kalifornia which should add a few miles.

definetely get pics of that, what does he do that puts so many miles on it?

 

I am putting on about the same amount of mileage as he is. About 40-50K a year.

A buddy of mine just purchased a 1997 A8 Audi with almost 400,000 km (250,000 miles) yesterday. I didn't know Audi would last that long. The thing still look good and drive great.

We (I moved back home) commute from Mission Viejo, CA (92692) to Downtown LA (90021) 6 days a week for work. Luckily we work graveyard hours (1am-noon / produce industry) so we miss all of the normal traffic that the 9-5ers suffer through.

I'll post picts tonight. The car is in San Bernadino (92401) which is 56~ish miles away on its "day off" at my sister's soccer tourney.

Why not live closer to that? That's a lot of commuting and gas usage

That is amazing. No oil changes, no transmission oil changes, no other service expect brakes and tires.
