My dad just recently stopped driving his work truck. It was a 1992 Sierra and has around 500,000km.

I was thinking I'd come in here seeing more posts like this.

Car1: bought used with 54k miles. ~170k miles logged since.
Car2: New in '01. Going good 170k miles later.

There's a 3rd car, but we bought it used a year ago. I don't think it qualifies, though i think it will be staying for a little bit longer. Oh yeah, and all 3 make me happy 🙂

I bought at 99k, at just a hair over 200k almost 10 years later. Does that count? 🙂

In Soviet Russia, 100k Miles make Mechanic smile.

Meh... I always know it will have 2500 miles a month later, and be hitting 100k in a bit over three years.

"Happiness is actually hitting the first 1200 mile service interval on the 2008 M3, and driving home from the dealership after. This is because the "no full-throttle and only rev it to 5500rpm" restriction is lifted, and you can full-throttle it all the way up to 8400rpm and 414 horsepower."

I thought that was the reaming i just recieved after taking it to the dealer for them to service it... hmmm

True happiness is thinking how much they paid for that monstrosity and how little if actually helps them offroad.
