JohnMitchell 16 #26 March 5, 2005 I had 160k on a Triumph Spitfire without ever taking the head off. If you know your British sportscars, you know that's amazing. Still ran when I sold it. Now the electrical system was another thing. . . . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tbrown 26 #44 March 6, 2005 Got a 1984 Nissan Sentra we bought brand new, fresh off the boat with 4.3 miles on it. It's past 226,000 by now and on its second engine. My wife was pregnant with our first kid when we bought it. The kid rode home from the hospital in it, her first ride in a car. Sixteen years later I taught her how to drive it. It's a 5 speed stick too, so she's one of a very few kids her age who can drive a stick. For the most part this old Sentra is now semi-retired, local driving only, but the old girl's still pulling her share of the load. Been completely paid for now for almost sixteen years, so we've sure got our money's worth. It's like one of the kids. Your humble servant.....Professor Gravity !

flyingferret 0 #47 March 7, 2005 When I parted ways with my Ford Festiva after college it had 165,000 miles on it. Had a friend with one sitting at 212,000. Pretty good for a Kia-made-for-Ford rollerskate. It also fit perfectly on the sidewalks at school....I heard.-- All the flaming and trolls of wreck dot with a pretty GUI.

davedlg 0 #50 March 7, 2005 I bought my Ford Ranger brand new in 1998 with 8 miles on it. In that time, I have put 141,000 miles on it and it has been everywhere from Key West Florida to Seattle to LA to Burlington, VT. The biggest problem I have had so far with it is the damn "door ajar" light won't go off. This is a very common problem with ford rangers and seeing as how it is the worst problem I have encountered, I am pretty happy with it. It will be a very sad day when I have to give that truck up. It has been through a lot with me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
