FlyingJ 0 #30 March 12, 2007 My favorite car ever! I had an '89 Volvo 240 that I sold with just over 315,000 on it. I put about 3/4 of those miles on it while in college in Cincinnati making several trips a month to Atlanta and New York City. Only sold it because I moved to NYC after college. It was a champ until I moved there, but it didn't hold up well only being driven a few times a month. My main repair on that thing was a computer replacement. That one hurt, but everything else was just routine wear and tear.Killing threads since 2004. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sundevil777 94 #32 March 12, 2007 QuoteMy Honda Prelude had over 200K on it. My Acura Vigor had around 180K on it. I've put 50K on my 4 Runner in 2 years. The Vigor, that is an unusual one. My '89 Civic has 225K on it, still going strong. The '96 Odyssey has only 130K, it is like new.People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sutton 0 #33 March 12, 2007 I had a 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee that I ran to 230K until the tranny died on me. It was all on the original engine, and mechanics would praise the quality of the engine, they kept telling me it looked new. Now I have a Jeep Cherokee that has about 150K on it, aqnd is still running great-Sutton Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
