This morning I hit 200,000 with my '08 RAV4. I got it with a little under 100,000 for a daily commuter since I drive 120 miles 4 days a week. Has been an awesome car.

04 Silverado 2500HD. I hit 147k going over the Appalachians yesterday.

It has now been over both mountain chains in the continental US, to both coasts (CA and NC). Has ridden the entirety of the southern border of the US from San Diego to Ft Lauderdale.

Many things, it's an 04. Nothing major though.

Will probably keep it forever

03 Silverado
It had 245K when I passed in down to my son 2 years ago; I think he's got about 275K on it now.

Repairs, noen until the 9th year, then:
Rack & Pinion
Wheal bearings
Gauge cluster, nothing too serious.

He plans to keep it at least until he buys his own house, maybe longer.

I hope my 2015 does as well as the 2003.

2007 Ram 1500 bought new. 120,000 and counting.

Tires, brakes, tie rod, 1 coil pack, egr valve, battery. That's about it. Since it has been such a dependable vehicle I'm planning on keeping it for another few years. If I can get another 30,000 trouble free I'd be tickled shitless.

I've never not put 100K on something. My last was a Tahoe. Put just under 300K on it. I'm in a Dodge Ram now and tipping on toward 100K. But it's a Cummins so I'll probably put another 500K on it before it dies.

What model and year of car/truck?

How many miles?

What's been fixed so far?

How much longer are you planning to keep it?



I had 200k on my old 99 Range Rover. I did cosmetic stuff mostly, I converted the air suspension to coil and springs but that was about it.

I ended up trading it in after owning it for 10 years for a 2009 Grand Cherokee Limited and got rid of the Jeep about a year late because I hated it. Wish I had kept my Rover and just put about 3k in it and rebuilt the transmission and did a few more cosmetic things, probably still be driving the shite out of it.

I now have close to 85k on my 2011 F150 Lariat with truck balls the size of basketballs (last part was bullshite, I can't bring myself to put truck nuts on my truck).

High school kids?

TRD made a supercharger for it, and I liked fast things and had some money to spend from summer jobs. It was super consistent at the track, which was good for bracket racing. Ran around 14.8, which was pretty quick back then.

I traded that thing in with almost 200k miles on it, and it ran like it was new.
