Milestone...in my eyes ;)

Post by PiDGE »

Hit the 300 mark the other night. Couple clutches, couple tires, 5000k oil changes and she still purrs. Never owned a vechile with such hi k on it before, but can't really complain. Truck feels solid after 9.5 years and still pulls strong. Reg. oil changes including diffs, tranny, transfer, rust checked yearly, driven responsibly has paid off. I can't complain and am very happy, also somewhat surprised it made it this far, but glad the care I did made my baby get this far. 400 might be pushing it and askin to much, but time well tell. Thanks to all including the members here, Milton Nissan, Brampton North, Airport Nissan, CT Motorsports, and the various shops over the years. Image

It's been a fun ride. Wishful thinking, but hopefully 300 more ;)

Meh....if it's still solid, another 100k isn't too much to ask.

If you take care of it, it'll probably make it to 500k. I know James with the blue pathy has 430k on his and it runs smoother than a lot of lower mileage cars. It's all in the maintenance. I do 5k oil changes too even with synthetic (stock up when it's on sale).

Congrats!

I have had some vehicles I have been tolerant of at that mileage but most I couldn't wait to get rid of.

I'm getting close to 400,000 on the ODO. but I think I already lurched past it a while ago (bigger tire = 10% off the read).
