Happy Mileage Birthday!
 
Today as I drove my drunk ass friend home after my long 15 hour day at work my car hit 170,000 miles. Actually it is still there since it was right as I pulled in our driveway.
I realized as I talked about it with my very non car orientated friends that the only people that would understand my excitement are on here so i figured I would just vent my pride to people that understand that I still have it running very well

That is very impressive, make me feel really good since Im almost at 130k in 2004, and 90% of that is all hwy miles!

my cobra is at 43k and my wrangler is at 175k (motor is still all original, and she just keeps tickin').

Around 65K on the Mustang, passed 111,111 mi on the eclipse today on the way to work. I work with a guy who has a 2000 V6 with 230K miles on it! All he has had to do was repace a passenger side header, of course.

I have a small leak in mine, and the engine light is on because of the AIR pump. I need new suspension under it but am waiting till spring when hopefully I can trace whatever wire is shorting not letting my passenger window roll down, and I got a lovely ding in the door guard that proves they keep the car from denting, now the paint is peeling off of it and i removed part of it to see what it is like underneath... they are staying on :mad:

Only things I had to replace were the water pump, front calipers, front and rear bumpers (for free courtesy of a parking lot collision), one axle/ rims/ rear brakes from stupidity, and a driver side window motor

I just hit 120k. Replaced my 4th alternator a month ago. Check engine light from a gas cap, and no TCS or ABS.

krazypony 08-11-2011 12:50 PM

well my car didnt come with TCS at all!

Good to read. My GT has amassed a whopping 21k miles. I have a good bit to go to catch up.

Here's to 30,000 more so you can be part of the 200,000 mile club with me!

Ahhhhh I remember when mine hit 170k :D

Mine will get there one day! especially if I can't find a beater for the winter... I will put a lot on next year because as a grad present to myself (assuming nothing goes crazy) I want to drive around Lake Superior next year

and sadly mine doesn't look nearly as amazing as that silver thing you have there, maybe one day she'll get a paintjob when I cut it up for a drag car
