2016 Jeep Wrangler with 60,000 miles
You laugh, but that is like 180,000 miles in normal cars.

'02 Dodge Ram 1500 that I bought new. 275,000K miles on it. I hate new trucks and all the fricking bling in it. Recently bought an '86 Chevy Suburban to frick around with.

2011 Mercedes-Benz E350. 105k miles. Bought it off a 36 month lease, CPO with 4 year warranty for $36k. Knock on wood, but the only repair has been the sunroof motor. Interior is in mint condition. I doubt that I get a new car before 2030.

But this thread reminds me of a childhood friend who's dad drove a Toyota Land Cruiser that had over 400,000 miles on it, I shite you not. Said he's never done anything to it, but change the oil.
Guy I know has a mid 80’s Land Cruiser with over 500k mikes on it. He’s had some work done to it though, but I think most of it has been general maintenance things. He did have it re-painted several years ago.

Pic from when I hit 250k:
It’s filthy, I know

03 Tahoe about to turn 204,000 miles. But it’s been relegated as my camp truck and our 3rd vehicle so I’m only putting about 5k/yr on it. I try to drive it for a week every month.

2021 4Runner TRD OR Premium. 14,000 miles or so.
I hope to keep it at least 15 years. I may buy another vehicle (probably a small pickup like a Maverick or Colorado) but I will keep my hands on this one so long as it avoids floods or wrecks. They are going to stop making 4Runners with V6 engines soon so I want to hang on to this one.
My wife is going to get a new car next and I’m hoping that means we can keep the miles off my 4Runner.
Wish I had kept my 2007 Silverado. New owners for that truck have kept it all these years. It had well over 250,000 miles as of 2019. I regret selling it even though the midwestern winters would have eaten through the body panels by now.

I love trucks like that. I would love to have a 1980s Land Cruiser (with the I-6) or GM square body Suburban if I can find it. I’d settle for a Bronco or Ram Charger of the same era.
The trucks from the 80s are popular now. But the 1980s cars like the Accord, Cressida, and Camry are less appreciated. But I have a soft spot for them too. It’s the blocky styling and simple lines…

I’ve been driving a 2012 Toyota Tacoma since 2011 and I just got 100k miles this month and it’s still going strong. Really have no reason to get anything else at this point. Especially with how expensive everything is currently

I have an 05 Z71 with 198k.
I bought it new as an E-7 and it's seen me through 3 marriages, 2 divorces and 6 states.
I have 2 other new trucks but that's my baby.

I hear that. I can’t understand the people who can afford a new ride and nice house but just drive old arse cars and hoard all their money. It’s like they gonna take it with them

I'm not willing to pay for it. I don't need heated seats and touchscreen navigation in a truck. Air conditioner, radio, power windows and locks are my required features

2009 Kia Soul. About 95,000 miles. Only repairs currently needed are cosmetic (front bumper is messed up some), so that's not going to happen. Going to give it to my oldest when old enough to drive.
