200k club, where are the real AT ballers at?

The proof is long gone, but when I sold my 96 Dodge Dakota back in 2006, it had over 211,000 miles on it. (and had barely been driven since 2003 when I quit working.)

During the time I owned it, I also put about 60K miles on my Dodge 1 ton, about 30,000 miles on my wife's Caravan...

Done it twice, first in my '00 Maxima (bought it with 28K) and with my '98 Accord (bought it with 170K, still running great at 265K). I probably would have gotten there in my '91 Eclipse GS Turbo but we had to sell it because it was just too small for a family. My wife's first Odyssey made it over 220K as well. We keep our cars a long time.

Not there yet. A few more years to go.

200k is the new 100k. Real ballers have more than 400k on the original engine.

Honda Odyssey getting there.
my 65' F250 only has 125K

[TXHokie]

My Odyssey has 180k so maybe in a year and a half we'll hit 200k
My F150 just turned 100k but since I only put 5k mi/yr, that ain't gonna happen for a looong time.

My 01 Audi A4 had about 230,000 miles on it. But my dad takes the cake. 1991 Chevy Astro Van. When it died showed 720,000 miles. But the odometer was out of service for about 100k of it. He drives for his business. He called up Chevy when approaching 500K thinking they may want to do a commercial. The marketing guy seemed embarrassed the van last that long.

Volvo did one on a dude that rolled past 1,000,000,000 if I recall.

I doubt that most Whole Paycheck... er Whole Foods customers ride around in cars with 200,000 miles.

the one near me has a fairly even spread of new/old nice/beater cars.

the one near me has a fairly even spread of new/old nice/beater cars. there are the food snobs, health food junkies, suits on lunch break, average joes on their day off, and people who obviously have too much time

Wife drives her's, I drive mine. When we go on trips it's a mix of who will drive. I do make my 6 year old son fully aware that the car I'm taking him to school in will be his in 8 years so keep your feet off of YOUR seat.

Sold my 05 Cobalt with 215k to get my wife a 10 Acadia with 90k last month. Now my primary is a 00 F-250 with 210k and need it to last until at least 2020 where it should be near 300k. I have a 02 Camaro with 60k in my garage I drive once a month or so, it will take another 40 years to get to 100k at the current rate.
